Questions asked in the other thread.
Yes I looked at the FAQ about how to transfer/import data. Unless I missed it this is not applicable.
do you have a zotero.sqlite? YES
How large is it? 1756KB
What type of errors are you getting? - "nondescript" isn't going to help anyone address your problem. SEE BELOW...
Try going to preferences and check database integrity. IT SAYS NO ERRORS
The nondescript error is exactly this...
"An error has occurred. Please restart Firefox.
You can report this error by selecting "Report Errors..." from the Actions (gear) menu."
I don't know, not trying to be smart-ass here, but that's pretty nondescript in my book. I suppose I should have included the exact text
So to recap again with the exact text etc., here is what happened/happens.
1. W7 Crash.
2. I did a physical backup of data, not via any backup routine or menu etc. The issue with W7 was a corrupt file.
3. I installed ZOTZERO. (it is a newer version)
4. I went to the previous location of the files and moved it over to the new profile directory.
5. After a pause of several seconds I get this error when I start firefox: "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/translate.js:244"
6. Once I stop the script and Firefox starts I get the above mentioned message in the center pane, I can see my folders on the left side, but nothing where i normally see the items.
From what it looks like there is a directory for each item. I think maybe the zotzero.sqlite file might be corrupt. I don't know, but I can see all the files in each directory.
So anyway that is all I can think of to offer as information.
