Upgrade StorageError: Access was denied while trying to open files in your profile directory.
When I try to open zotero it shows the following error:
Access was denied while trying to open files in your profile directory.
This problem appears when I start zotero tarball (latest version, downloaded today) and the deb package, while snap and flatpak work as expected.
$ which zotero (for zotero deb)
/usr/local/bin/zotero
~/Downloads/zotero/
$ uname -a
Linux XXX 5.4.0-52-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 15 10:57:00 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Permission checked for ~/.zotero/ and granted again with
chown -hR me:me ~/.zotero/zotero/
No further error was produced when trying:
zotero -ZoteroDebugText > ~/zotero.log
zotero -P is my default option, but doesn't change the behaviour with the tarball.
The issue was already discussed here:
https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb/issues/31
Thank you for your help in advance!
