Importing Zotero database
Hello Everyone,
Just joined the zotero club. I am trying to import a zotero database and I keep getting two errors:
1. Exception..."Access to restricted URI denied" code: "1012" (and so on..) I have submitted it and my Report ID is : 199716434
2. During import I also another error: the file:
"/C:/Users/***.OPS/AppData/Roaming/Zotero/Zotero/Profiles/og4k85aq.default/zotero/storage/section7contents.htm cannot be found. Please check the location and try again"
I have tried looking online for issue # 1, it appears to have been reported earlier, but could not find the solution.
Appreciate your help
Arvind

That's a long filename, which can cause file-not-found errors on Windows, but I don't believe it's long enough that it should be causing problems.
As a workaround, you can try simply moving that file to your desktop temporarily and retrying the import. If that's the only file that causes a problem, the rest of the import might go through.
The file /C:/Users/Arvind.Mohanram.OPS/AppData/Roaming/Zotero/Zotero/Profiles/og4k85aq.default/zotero/storage/section7contents.htm cannot be found. Please check the location and try again
then I get another popup message which says:
Restriction.. Acess to URI denied.."
finally when I say ok I get
"An error occurred while trying to import the selected file. Please ensure that the file is valid and try again."

Are you running any sort of security software? If so, try temporarily disabling it.
Also, I'm not sure why it should matter, but where did this RDF file come from? Was this exported from a very old version of Zotero?
2. Regarding security software, I am not sure-im using this at my office that has Norton.
3. Yes. I am trying to copy this library from my collegue who is using Zotero Version 4.0.16. He zipped his entire library (with attachment)and the RDF. I unzip the RDF and file attachment into a folder and import the RDF into Zotero.
Interestingly, if I copy the RDF file into separate location (that does not have attachment), I am not having any issues.

- RDF isn't the best way to transfer a library.
