Standalone will not work with LibreOffice Writer on Ubuntu 11.04
I have been trying to get Zotero working with LibreOffice in hopes of moving away from VirtualBox + MS Office + Endnote, but cannot get citations to work with LibreOffice.
I am using Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit, Google Chrome Beta (12.0.742.30-r84361), the Zotero Chrome Extension, and the Zotero Standalone Alpha.
The buttons are showing up in LibreOffice Writer, the Chrome extension is working (at least with google scholar), but every time I try to insert a citation I get:
"Firefox could not load the component required to communicate with your word processor. Please ensure that the appropriate Firefox extension is installed and try again."
Report ID: 1796526265
[JavaScript Error: "[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.getService]" nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/integration.js :: _callIntegration :: line 325" data: no]" {file: "chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/integration.js" line: 325}]
I have removed IcedTea, set Sun Java as default, and my cite preferences are:
UNO Directory: file:///usr/share/libreoffice/basis-link/ure-link/share/java/
soffice Directory: file:///usr/lib/libreoffice/program/
I have tried with the browser open, closed, restarted Zotero, LibreOffice, and the browser multiple times with the same result.
I did manage to import my Endnote references but that is as far as I've been able to get.
I really appreciate the development efforts, it would be fantastic to get this up and running!

Otherwise I have had great success with importing citations from various websites (including my university library), and am very thankful for the standalone version.
