Can't download PDFs from EBSCHost: ER# 2056813248

I get "Could Not Save Item...check Troubleshooting Translator Issues".

It doesn't matter if I try multiple downloads (with the folder icon)...or single downloads. (Mouse over icon indicates EBSCOhost translator.

Error Report # 2056813248

It was working fine as of 21 Nov 2014.

Edit: Rebooted, too, if that matters.

Thanks!

    other translators work? That's odd.

    Well, actually, I hadn't tried other translators.

    Amazon and Google books work.

    World Cat does not.

    Any others I should try?

    While we are on the EBSCOhost translator (ATLAS database)...

    Lately (when it was working) the Item Type is "Magazine Article" instead of "Journal Article."

    I doubt that makes any difference for citations (does it?), but it's a bit annoying, and makes searching/sorting by Item Type awkward.

    Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!

    Let's take this to another thread. Can you provide specific links or IDs?


    @Dan, see https://github.com/zotero/zotero/pull/583

    https://github.com/zotero/zotero/pull/581 which is now part of beta introduced a bug when loading translators from other translators.
