Zotero stopped downloading PDF after traslators update
After updating the translators in the Chrome Zotero Connector, Zotero stopped to download PDF from pages.
E.g. I am unable to download PDF from JSTOR (link: http://www.jstor.org/stable/2109594?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents)
and ScienceDirect (link: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0094119004000385)
In the first case, Zotero tries to download the PDF, as showed in the popup, but after some time it puts a red cross on the left of the PDF file, indicating that the download failed
In the second case, Zotero does not try at all to download a PDF file
No further error messages are provided
Before the update of the translators, I was able to download from both JSTOR and ScienceDirect, although I did not try these 2 particular articles

I previously downloaded plenty of PDFs which I think are not free and I would not be able to download outside my university network, also from ScienceDirect
For example I previously successfully downloaded this: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167718704001080
JSTOR -- you need to accept their conditions of use by downloading a PDF manually once per session.
Glad to be of help for ScienceDirect :)
So positive: it's working
That's strange

I am not on campus but I am connected through the university proxy server. The proxy is configured automatically using a PAC file provided by the university. I use Google Chrome, while the SwitchyOmega extension manages the proxy configuration. Of course I am able to download the PDF manually (fortunately ZotFile recognizes the download and asks to add it automatically!)
Do other paywalled PDFs import correctly for you?
ScienceDirect seems to work, while IEEE Explore doesn't work (e.g. this http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/610040/ doesn't work). I am talking about Zotero automatic download, I am able to manually download the PDF from both of them
if (shExpMatch(url, "http://*.sciencedirect.com/*")) { return "PROXY proxy.polimi.it:8080"; }
if (shExpMatch(url, "http://*.ieee.org*")) { return "PROXY proxy.polimi.it:8080"; }
if (shExpMatch(url, "http://*.sagepub.com/*")) { return "PROXY proxy.polimi.it:8080"; }
For the standalone is D186610158
I have tried to download this: http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/014920630102700609
and got the red cross
Thanks
For the connector is D599753558
For Zotero is D674895677
