I'm having the same problem. First I thought, I maybe blew a limit by adding 200-300 objects to my zotero database in once night. But if I'm not the only one, maybe the plugiu is broken.
Also seeing this error, though not 100% of the time (I can try an import multiple times and sometimes it works eventually).
"Archive URL Not Found" error seems to be persistent. However, when I search a couple of minutes later for the URL in the wayback machine, in most cases I find a saved snapshot which seems to be created at the time when the message about successful archiving appears.
Same problem here. I also want to know if the extension is still supported and working.
I'm also wondering if it still works: I import items in Zotero and then click on Archive this Resource, but the plugin doesn't seem to do anything at all. No archive pages are created and, consequently, nothing is recorded in the extra field. The error console tells me that no chrome package is registered for overlay.dtd (apologies, I seem to be unable to copy and paste from the console)
This was something made as a summer project. I'm a currently a student with little time to resolve this; perhaps I'll fix this at some time in the future.
@leonkt Thanks for your straightforward answer. Would a bug bounty help motivate you (i.e. assign some of your spare time) to fix the extension? E.g. via Bountysource (see the FAQ for an intro)?
That won't be necessary haha. I'll set aside some time during the next break to see if I can resolve this.
After a while, I got around to fixing it! :) New version under Releases, use the instructions previously listed to install.

Thank you very much!
I've just installed the latest release and it does add archive links again to newly added items. But the add-on still completely "freezes" Zotero's UI until the archiving is done – which sometimes takes up to several minutes (see also https://github.com/leonkt/zotero-memento/issues/9)... 😐 I understand that this is probably due to the slow archive.org API. Thus, it would be awesome if you somehow could make the extension's archiving process non-blocking!
I released a version, v1.1.1, where this freezing bug should be fixed!
In case anyone comes here looking for help, we recently rewrote this extension as "Zotero Robust Links": https://github.com/lanl/Zotero-Robust-Links-Extension
Has the Internet Archive blocked this extension somehow? I've noticed in the past few weeks that I receive an "Archive URL Not Found" error.
Here's the debug output:
