Inserting PDF crashes Zotero ("There was an error starting Zotero")

Error report ID: 1647337685

Hi guys,

I already got this error a couple of times. What I'm doing:

- start up Firefox, open Zotero, everything works fine
- try to insert a new link to a PDF on the hard disk
- Zotero freezes
- After a while, I get a "There was an error starting Zotero" error

Best,
Rik

    Wait—how are you getting "There was an error starting Zotero" if Zotero is already open? Where are you seeing that message?

    Hi Dan,

    Ah, ouch, I was wrong. The error message is actually:

    "An error has occurred. Please restart Firefox."

    Sorry about that.

    If you can reproduce this reliably enough, provide a Debug ID for a PDF-adding attempt that produces this.

    And this is happening all on its own? You're not getting an Unresponsive Script Warning and stopping the script?
