Hi,

it seems like that there is something wrong with the service. I tried to get the references for this paper but neither arXiv ID nor doi seems to work.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<title>Error</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>Cannot GET /doi2bib</pre>
</body>
</html>

Also, the error message does not seem like a proper return value, does it?

Greetings René

It happens to me with any reference.

Hi How are you guys using the tool? Maybe, you need to do a hard browser reload to make it work again: https://www.getfilecloud.com/blog/2015/03/tech-tip-how-to-do-hard-refresh-in-browsers/#.XULMk5MzZ24.

Maybe that was it. It works now.

How are you guys using the tool?

I used the official website https://doi2bib.org. I'm pretty sure there must have been an error with some backend service but it seems to be fixed now.

Do you want to find out the root cause for the failure? Otherwise I think we can close this issue.

I haven't tried it recently. Wrote some code that does the trick for me. Happy to share it. Its part of the rejectedManagement.R code in the guthub archive https://github.com/GeraldCNelson/citationManagement. It's part of a larger project and the code isn't really standalone but it does the trick for me at the moment.
