com.dropbox.core.NetworkIOException: timeout
Here is code try { //Download file for DropBox 2 DbxDownloader<FileMetadata> downloadData = dbxClientV2.files().download(dBoxPath); ouputStream = new FileOutputStream(localFile); ...
It is happening some time. Right now I am not getting error. Once I face issue, I will post you.
Hi,
I am facing same issue while I am downloading .zip file of 162MB
com.dropbox.core.NetworkIOException: Unable to resolve host "content.dropboxapi.com": No address associated with hostname
I am having there files 162MB, 300KB, 250MB , I made for loop to download each item
1. When I am trying to download first file I gotNetworkIOException.
2. For 2nd file it was downloaded.
3. It was downloaded but only 500KB, it did not download 250MB
Here is code I am working
try {
//Download file for DropBox 2
DbxDownloader<FileMetadata> downloadData = dbxClientV2.files().download(dBoxPath);
ouputStream = new FileOutputStream(localFile);
downloadData.download(ouputStream);
} catch (Exception err) {
Log.e(LOG_TAG, "Exception thrown for file at " + dBoxPath + " err msg :" + err.getMessage());
success = false;
} finally {
if (ouputStream != null) {
ouputStream.close();
}
}
NetworkIOException might be issue in Internet. But why it was downloaded only 500KB instead of 250MB. Please suggest me
Thanks

The error message for the NetworkIOException you posted does indicate a DNS issue. The content.dropboxapi.com hostname is resolving correctly though, so it does seem to be intermittent DNS issues on your side.
Regarding the incomplete download, your code looks fine. I just tried it with a 250 MB file and it's working for me.
If the download doesn't complete, you should get some error message. What error/output are you getting in that case?
We are not getting progress of download. It just return when doenload is completed. Is there any change in future, we can get progress of download?
Right now I am geting this error
om.dropbox.core.NetworkIOException: Unable to resolve host "content.dropboxapi.com": No address associated with hostname
But I am not using any Dropbox V1. In last converstation I posted code too.
Here I am not getting any idea about DNS issue, can you explain more detailed.
Thanks.
- Greg-DBThe API v2 Java SDK doesn't offer progress listeners, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when this may be added to the SDK though.
The DNS issue wouldn't be specific to API v1. API v2 also uses the 'content.dropboxapi.com' hostname, so your system needs to be able to query the DNS records for that.
DNS is a way for computers to translate hostnames (like 'content.dropboxapi.com') into IP addresses, so the computer knows where to find the relevant servers. Your computer asks your DNS server(s) to do this translation.
I just checked on my side, and the Dropbox content and API servers do have correct DNS entries. There are many different DNS servers though, so you'll need to check why the particular DNS server(s) you're using occasionally are not returning these entries, causing this error.
