Zotero 7 crashes, hangs...

Roberto_Ronconi · May 16, 2024

Zotero crashes, hangs (se traba, se congela) very often. Using together with LibreOffice or Firefox but also using Zotero exclusively
Zotero 7.0.0-beta
https://github.com/retorquere/zotero-deb
Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon
Kernel: 6.5.0-26
LibreOffice 24.2.3
Firefox 126
Dell Vostro 3590 Intel Core i5
Also on Windows 10 Home 22H2...but less

Probably because of LibreOffice 24. If you can, you should switch back to LibreOffice version 7

Well, a Zotero crash or hang wouldn't be related to LO unless this only happened when using LO integration, but it doesn't sound like that's the case.

@Roberto_Ronconi, we'd need many more details to help (a crash log, how to reproduce, etc.), in any case.

I thought it was the case for LibreOffice, per the first sentence of the OP. But I may have misunderstood.

it hangs (In Spanish "se cuelga") for a few seconds
Sorry if I created confusion or I was not clear
It is probably caused by the desktop environment. I tried with others XFCE, KDE and it doesn't happen.
