Exception, but file was attached. Log File |

Same happens regularly (error, but file gets attached) - just documenting the errors, in case that is helpful. JabRef 5.2--2020-11-17--a335f0d Log File |

It's always the same error, so no need to report it everytime, but I fear it's somehow related to javafx. I am not sure if we can do anything about this atm. |
|
Ok, thanks a lot. |
|
It is still the same issue |
|
Can you please try again with the latest version? I updated the javafx version |
|
Hi, I do not get any reaction - no error message but neither is a pdf attached. |
|
Hi, at Log Fileand the pdf does not get attached. |
|
Hi, at Log Fileand the pdf does get attached when I drag and drop onto the File field of an entry/in entry editor. |
|
@ilippert damn, I hoped that the bug was fixed with jfx16 :/ |
|
Hi, pressing/not pressing modifier keys does not prevent the error message. well that is what JabRef offers to me. |
|
When I attach a file, it does attach, but I get an error in JabRef 5.3--2021-07-16--c99d61c Log Filejava.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot read field "dragboard" because "this.this$0.dndGesture" is null |
|
This is the complete error message that JabRef offers to me. I did not press any keys whilst drag & drop. |
|
error still at JabRef 5.4--2021-08-15--96061b7 |
|
Good news, this might be fixed with the upcoming JavaFX17 version which will be released soon |

@ilippert This will be hopefully fixed in the next master/main version (currently building). Javafx 17 got released and this should fix it. |

JabRef 5.4--2021-09-20--a91420d I cannot attach a folder to the entry. |

It seems like they recognized that this bug is still occuring under linux https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8275033 |
I was facing the same problem for an entirely different project using Fedora Linux 36 and drag and drop events. After a lengthy Reddit discussion, Nir Lisker got this issue reopened. It is still present in JavaFX 19 and below. Hopefully it will gain some traction. |

After updating to JabRef 5.9, I am experiencing the same issue. JabRef version: 5.9 Log File |
|
@philipptempel The issue lies in the JFX SDK and will be fixed in openjfx21, which will be released at an unknown date as of today. It could be months, but it has nothing to do with the application itself |
|
I just checked, in my reading of openjdk/jfx@7e54b63 we are now at openjfx22. But the issue has not changed in my experience with JabRef. JabRef 5.10--2023-07-04--ffedea2 |
|
@ilippert Java & javafx are independent. We are still using javafx 20 as the version number you posted reports :) |
|
To chime in on the recent activity: I do no longer have the problem / error when dragging files to JabRef. Neither on macOS nor on Linux. |
|
I am on and the issue persists Log File |
|
Might be fixed by the newer javafx version, but we are currently blocked by a third party component and cannot upgrade |
