Zotero is giving an error message during bulk imports

Report ID: 634507072


Hello,

I am using Zotero 7.0.11-beta.9+0a6095322 (64-bit) on Windows 10.

In the past, I have not had any trouble with bulk imports from databases (PubMed, EBSCO, etc.), but since Friday 12/06, I am constantly receiving error messages when attempting to do a bulk import from a database.

The error message is "An error occurred importing the selected file with "MEDLINE/nbib." Please ensure that the file is valid and try again." When I try to do a bulk import from EBSCO, the error message is "An error occurred importing the selected file with "RIS." Please ensure that the file is valid and try again."

This is happening with many different searches in EBSCO and PubMed, but for example, using "Send to-> Citation manager" from this search is generating that error:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=(("nurse+role"[Title/Abstract:~2]+OR+"nurse's+role"+OR+"nursing+role"[Title/Abstract:~2]+OR+"nurses+role"[Title/Abstract:~2])+AND+(address*+OR+educat*+OR+screen*+OR+refer*+OR+"care+coordinat*"+OR+"coordinat*+care"+OR+advoca*+OR+assess*+OR+document*))+AND+(SDOH+OR+"social+determinant"+OR+"health+equity"+OR+"health+disparit*"+OR+"health+inequit*"+OR+"social+risk")

This is the error text that was generated when I reported the error:

Have also done a database integrity check and that doesn't seem to be a problem.

Any ideas about what might be going wrong here?

  • [JavaScript Error: "Error(s) encountered during statement execution: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed [QUERY: INSERT OR REPLACE INTO itemTags (itemID, tagID, type) VALUES (?, ?, ?)] [PARAMS: 114859, 90550, 0] [ERROR: FOREIGN KEY constraint failed]" {file: "chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/db.js" line: 686}]
    Can you email the file in question to support@zotero.org with a link to this thread?
  • Weirdly, this is no longer giving me an error message after I upgraded from the beta to the full version 7 release, so I'll consider this resolved for now.
