Error saving item from acm.org (report ID: 2097135413)

Hi,
I'm using Zotero standalone and Safari plugin. I successfully add items from any website but www.acm.org. When I try to add an item from ACM, I get an error: "Error saving item, check Known Translator Issues for more information".

Anyone having the same issue?

The report ID is: 2097135413

Thanks.
  • what's the specific URL you're trying, exactly as you see it?
  • This one: http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=964287
  • Works for me -- is that report ID from Zotero Standalone or from Safari? We'd want it from Safari

  • Hi Adam,
    no, sorry, it was from the standalone, These are the correct IDs for report and Debug in safari:

    report ID: 742255771
    Debug ID: D705642495

    Thank you very much!
    Jose

  • I am having the same issue as well too.
    My erroneous URL: http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2615431&CFID=690514190&CFTOKEN=93917943
  • This is failing for me on the URLs above and many others. Is there any news on a potential fix or workaround?
  • also on Safari?
  • Yes, sorry, this is with Safari 9.0.1 (11601.2.7.2) on OS X 10.11.1.
  • there's a known issues that Safari currently requires STandalone to be open when saving. Is that the case, i.e. do you have Zotero Standalone running when you try this?
  • Yes, the Mac Zotero app is running the whole time. I can successfully save links and full text from others sites (e.g., Springer).
