Steps to reproduce the behavior:

type a character into the entry editor
an error window pops up. Actually two, I believe.

Coincidentally, the screenshot below also shows the "the library hs been modified by another program" error message.

This is a duplicate of the search error issue with the highlight function

Siedlerchr · 2019-09-10T08:23:15Z

I see that the snap no longer builds, Will try to configure the snap for java 11

Siedlerchr · 2019-09-12T18:33:30Z

@wujastyk Could you please test if this error is still occurring in the newest snap?

wujastyk · 2019-09-12T19:15:51Z

"modified" is still an issue with today's snap . I had reception popups too, but was working to fast to read them. Sent from Android phone

It seems like it's not actually modified by another program.
I only get this warning if I save again while it's still saving...
I also cannot reproduce any popups in this scenario.

AEgit · 2019-09-21T15:54:59Z

Cannot confirm the popup error message.

@wujastyk
Are you talking about the "Uncaught exception error" reported in the original post (#5296 (comment)) or just the "The library has been modified by another program" message (I only see the latter in the screenshot you posted)?

wujastyk · 2019-09-21T19:18:08Z

"library has been modified". I see, you're talking about the error popup.

Apologies; I should have kept one issue to one report.

AEgit · 2019-09-21T19:21:41Z

Ok, in that case I would probably suggest to close this issue, because the main problem appears to be fixed. The "library has been modified" message, on the other hand, has already been reported in various other bug tickets, e.g.:

#5257
#5085
#4877
#4810
(also present in older versions: #4143)

I reckon these issues have a common cause.

tobiasdiez · 2020-01-17T23:19:41Z

This should be fixed in the latest development version. Could you please check the build from http://builds.jabref.org/master/. Thanks! Please remember to make a backup of your library before trying-out this version.

wujastyk · 2020-01-18T02:44:16Z

JabRef 5.0-beta.352--2020-01-18--49e8ee2 Linux 5.3.0-26-generic amd64 Java 13.0.2 So far so good! Thank you!

I would like to return to this issue. With every single edit that I make to an entry, I get this popup screen multiple times. I've kind of learned to live with it, hitting "dismiss" all the time, but it needs to be sorted out definitively.

Siedlerchr · 2024-08-05T14:00:21Z

pIng @koppor

koppor · 2024-08-05T18:56:53Z

@wujastyk do we have a copy of the library? It has surely something to do with library properties such as save actions.

koppor · 2024-08-05T18:57:18Z

I also would like to see what differences are shown.

wujastyk · 2024-08-05T20:13:38Z

The library is rather big, 4.3 MB. Here's a link.

The differences are often nothing at all. But I'll start collecting.

wujastyk · 2024-08-06T15:25:37Z

I turned off "autosave local libraries" and I haven't seen the problem since. Still watching.

I constructed a library using tools/new sub based on latex aux. It was called "untitled".
I saved it and named it.
Got the screen below.
