Bug report : Zotero freezes and closes with Better Bibtex Extension #2994

Debug log ID

D1961826856

What happened?

Hello, Zotero freezes and closes when the Better Bibtex extension for Zotero is activated. This problem does not occur when I manage to deactivate the extension. This problem did not occur before, I observed slowness of execution but no freeze and closing of Zotero. I can't figure out whether this happens after an update or after I've made unusual demands on the extension, with new content for example. Thank you for your attention. Best regards

Is there anything else I can do?

You could try starting Zotero 7 once (while 6 is not running) to see if that can run through the init, and then switch back to Zotero 6. I can't do anything else without feedback from the Zotero devs, and they've been silent so far.

It looks like Zotero 7 is working fine with BBT 6.7.240. If I don't give any further news, it's definitely the case. I also hope I won't find out afterwards that important modules in my configuration are incompatible with Zotero 7.

You can just switch back to zotero. The one time run with Zotero 7 has done the prep work that BBT in Zotero 6 got stuck on. But zotero 7 is lots faster, and better supported, so I'd advise to switch if you can.
