--- Comment #12 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
As far as I can tell, the behaviour is independent of any extension. 

I don't have an issue with Zotero 5.0.8.9 and
Version: 7.0.0.3
Build ID: 8061b3e9204bef6b321a21033174034a5e2ea88e
Threads CPU : 8; OS : Mac OS X 10.15.5; UI Render : par défaut; VCL: osx
Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); Langue IHM : fr-FR
Calc: threaded

using Oracle OpenJDK12 in the OS default directory

however, using OpenJDK14 in the OS default directory

causes the missing JRE error message to appear (which is indeed incorrect, as
the JDK is detected by LO), but clearly no VM is instantiated - clicking on any
of the Zotero plugin buttons in the Writer toolbar fails to produce any
tangible result.

The take away from this is that if the JDK version that is installed can not be
instantiated for whatever reason (wrong or non-authorised path, buggy JDK
version, wrong name compared to that expected by LO's XCU files, etc), then the
error message will be displayed.

As I mention above, this works fine for me with Oracle OpenJDK12 in the
standard OS system path settings, but not with JDK14. Whether this is the same
issue as that reported here is as yet unclear.
