Upgrade Storage[5.0 Beta] Fails on file and clipboard import
When trying to import one or more BibTex or Zotero RDF entries to Zotero Standalone I keep getting a series of similar messages:
JavaScript Error: "not well-formed" {file: "moz-nullprincipal:{84b9ba43-5370-432f-a490-6fa77268688f}" line: 1 column: 1 source: "@Book{abramowitz+stegun,"}]
No record is added when importing from clipboard and an empty collection is created when importing from a .bib file.
The error occurs even when simple, well-formed records are being imported:
@Book{abramowitz+stegun,
author = "Milton {Abramowitz} and Irene A. {Stegun}",
title = "Handbook of Mathematical Functions with
Formulas, Graphs, and Mathematical Tables",
publisher = "Dover",
year = 1964,
address = "New York City",
edition = "ninth Dover printing, tenth GPO printing"
}
The files are correctly imported into my 4.3 installation.

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
The only error message this time is:
[JavaScript Error: "Localized string not available for fileInterface.importing"]
version => 5.0-beta.137+469d689, platform => Linux x86_64, oscpu => Linux x86_64, locale => en-US, appName => Zotero, appVersion => 5.0-beta.137+469d689, extensions => Zutilo Utility for Zotero (2.0.2, extension), Zotero LibreOffice Integration (3.5.12.SA.5.0-beta.137+469d689, extension), DjView-4.10.6 (, plugin), Shockwave Flash (, plugin), Java(TM) Plug-in 11.121.2 (11.121.2, plugin)
The import debug messages look fine to me.
The import now works perfectly!
