  • Am I correct in interpretting the javascript error as "when Zotero.Sync.Storage.Session.WebDAV.getLastSyncTime() is called it returns a server error number 500, which is unimplemented in the javascript code?" thanks, Dave.
  • I have 5130 files in this WebDAV folder (all of which come from Zotero). They take up 2.6Gb. I can continue to create files using the box.com web interface but it appears that the WebDAV limits have been reached. Any possibility of splitting We…
  • I should update that I've just realised that my WebDAV server has not seen an update since 21st December so I definitely have a problem here. Thanks, Dave.
  • Ok, I'm not entirely sure why but by playing with it I've managed to get it to work for Nature now, but not for Science. Weird.
  • Hmm, then I'm afraid I can't help you. I've had almost the opposite experience recently (http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/17523/problem-with-proxy-redirection/) where since an upgrade zotero no longer uses my proxy redirection. I mention it here …
  • Unfortunately for your test link I have IP based access to jstor. But I've rigged up my own test (using a Nature link) and it's the same problem as stated above. It goes straight to the correct Nature address rather than being redirected through the…
  • When you say clearing all proxies from your Preferences, you mean your Zotero preferences right? Because zotero has the ability to do proxy redirection also, it's under Zotero->Preferences->Proxies. This is completely separate to Firefox proxi…
  • Thanks, by deleting the four zip files and resetting the file sync history I've managed to stop the 50Mb transfer of files on each sync. For what it's worth, the zip files weren't corrupted as far as unzip is concerned. Zotero continues to chec…
  • Hey, This bug is still a problem for me. I've been looking into it a bit more. For those that don't have access to the debug output, it basically says that it downloaded those 15 files but they weren't valid zip files (all files that are s…
  • For the exact reason you stated I also do not want it to search all of my zotero library (mine is like 1.7Gb). I am a research scientist and when I come across an interesting webpage I am sometimes torn between bookmarking it and sticking it in…
  • I've been having similar issues. One thing that allowed it to work at least some of the time was to check the security certificates for my webdav. They had been updated on the server so were no longer correct on firefox/zotero but zotero never told …
  • I'm having the same problem as ruiluis. Same error message and likewise only on one computer. My other computer and a different installation of firefox on this machine have no problem. Dave.
  • I'm having a similar problem to charpent. I upgraded one machine no problem. Now I'm on a different machine (which has had things added to its collection prior to upgrade and sync) and I seem to have an indefinite loop where the sync mouseover says …
  • I'm afraid I had to reinstall zotero and make a lot of changes (for reasons unrelated to zotero) so I don't think there's any point in me doing the debug now as there are no further problems. Thanks anyway, Dave.
  • Dan, I had a similar problem with the security on my webdav server causing the "Zotero.Sync.Storage.Session.WebDAV.getLastSyncTime()" error. But if you're still interested the original problem remains. I've just gotten back to my office co…
  • I have a bug report id now: 386318449 Today it's claiming that: Unexpected status code 401 caching authentication credentials in Zotero.Sync.Storage.Session.WebDAV.getLastSyncTime() Dave.
  • No. The one thing I did was disable WebDAV for a day or so (as you guys suggested) due to the bug in the first beta 7 release. I then re-enabled it when I installed b7.1 Dave.
  • I also would like to have my firefox bookmarks incorporated into zotero, probably as a separate collection. When I am browsing academic sources I am often torn between bookmarking them as regular bookmarks or adding them to zotero. I don't normally …
  • Aren't files already indexed when they are downloaded? Or do you mean when a file is added on computer A that once computer B syncs with the server it also attempts to download and index the new file? Dave.
  • Brilliant. I'm not a complete freak about security but in this day and age it seems careless to do any less.
  • How about notes which are attached to a collection as standalone documents? Would that do what you mean? You could then link them to other documents as 'related documents'. I'd certainly like that feature. Dave.
  • I'm not a zotero programmer and I use LaTeX for my writing so I apologise in advance if I'm wrong. But your problem seems to be with the formatting of the references within the text i.e. [50, 49, 48, 47, 46] vs [46-50]. I know in M$ Word that's a qu…
  • Oh, wow. Thanks that's great. Dave.
  • I can think of a couple of approaches (all are similar to your suggestion): 1) The zotero software detects whether a different volume is being used for the database from the profile directory in Windows. If both are on the same volume we use relat…
  • Isn't that a question/problem with OpenOffice? OpenOffice should be handling your references at the output stage not Zotero. Just my 2cents worth.
