Invalid response from server

khanhtoan1084
I try i sync my database with the latest Zotero 1.5a1.r3105. But i got this phrase: "Invalid response from server"

What can i do to solve this problem, please ?
  • dstillman
    We'll need debug output for the error.
  • khanhtoan1084
    I've just find out how to solve this problem. Just clear server data after back up my zotero folder. Than it work well now.
  • dstillman
    Well, yes, but that doesn't help us make sure it's fixed so that we can stabilize 1.5 and release it for general use.
  • khanhtoan1084
    So what can i do to help you ?
    "We'll need debug output for the error" I've just followed what described here. But i don't know how to send it to you.
  • dstillman
    Debug output is only useful while you're still experiencing the error.

    For future reference, when we ask for debug output, you can either look for the error towards the bottom of the debug output and post the 15 or so lines above it here, or, if you're not sure what to look for, you can just send the whole output to support@zot....org.

    Im also getting this error since the latest add-in update.
    I submitted error report 1457500655.
  • dstillman
    siliconbug: That should already be fixed on the trunk.

    vpolito: We'll need debug output for the error to know the actual issue you're seeing.

    I also have been unable to sync, starting from my first attempt. My error report ID is 463619356.
  • dstillman
    ryevans: See above. We'll need debug output.

    Dan, here is the last portion of the debug output.

  • dstillman
    ryevans: That's "Sync fails if tags are longer than 256 characters" on the known issues page. Shorten or separate tags manually to fix it.
  • ryevans
    Thanks, that worked. Long tags were from references imported from Endnote.

    RE: "invalid response from server"

    I am working with FirefoxPortable. After I set "extensions.zotero.debug.log" to true and close Firefox, what would I need to write on the command line to restart Firefox to see a "debug output"?

    hkayali: See the instructions on the debug output page for what to do if Firefox can't be found.

    It needs to be the debug output while you try to sync—this is just debug output for loading this forum thread.
  • hkayali
    Thank you very much. One final try, lest I clutter too much.

    OK, thanks. That's the same issue that siliconbug was experiencing above and that is fixed on the trunk.
  • hkayali
    Dan,
    Installing Trunk XPI should solve the problem? I am not having luck.
  • vpolito
    Here's my debug output:

    Is this the same error?
