There was an error starting Zotero
Mac OS 10.5.8
Firefox 3.6.3
Zotero 2.0.2
As I've seen others post, Zotero won't open when I start Firefox and I receive the pop-up message "There was an error starting Zotero," along with the yellow hazard sign. Below is one of the errors I received in my console:
Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED) [nsILocalFile.remove]" nsresult: "0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/integration.js :: anonymous :: line 70" data: no]

Thank you so much!

dstillmanSee http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/12054/trouble-firefox-362/#Item_8 and my post two down from that for the fix.

mhloweI first entered the first set of commands, followed by the second, and entered my password. Everything seemed to go smoothly, but when I restarted Firefox, Zotero will still not open. Would you like me to show you what outputs I get when I run the first command set?
-
dstillmanYes, but did you alter the second command according to the instructions there?
-
mhloweThat fixed it! Thank you, you are a life saver!
