And the chimbori fetcher also seems to have some problems. It only returns empty entries (Also on website)

Der Service funktioniert grundsätzlich noch. Beispiele:

https://www.ebook.de/de/tools/isbn2bibtex?isbn=3462050842
https://www.ebook.de/de/tools/isbn2bibtex?isbn=9783734100932

Den Artikel mit der von dir genannten ISBN (978-3-86680-192-9) gibt es bei ebook.de allerdings nicht mehr.

Der Service liefert einen 404 mit dem Response-Text "Not Found" zurück, wenn ebook.de den Artikel nicht (mehr) im Sortiment hat.

Ich vermute deshalb, dass es bei den anderen ISBNs, mit denen du getestet hast, die gleiche Ursache hat.

Du kannst übrigens prüfen, ob es den Artikel bei ebook.de gibt, indem du die EAN/ISBN im Shop unter https://www.ebook.de/de/ in die Suche eingibst (und die Suche abschickst).

Is it possible that the fallback to amazon (chimbori) is not working and that that service is down?

Remember: We first try ebook.de. If that is unavailable, we try amazon. - User-facing documentation: http://help.jabref.org/en/ISBNtoBibTeX

After reading the comment by @Siedlerchr this is the case.

I guess the code also produces a fetcher exception on the 404 of ebook.de so we never query chimbori (as far as I remember).

Visit https://bibtex.chimbori.com/ and try the example ISBN: 978-3639174304

Result:

@book{9783639174304,
  Author = {},
  Title = {},
  Publisher = {},
  Year = {},
  ISBN = {},
  URL = {}
}
