Error 500 when authenticating via API and using redirect_uri

If i remove this parameter, it gives me a code. But adding it, returns an Error 500 on Dropbox.

 

Is this an issue with the platform? It was working properly this morning.

    An additional piece of information.

     

    I created another temp app and connected my webapp to it. And it works flawlessly.

     

    One thing I did do that I forgot to mention, is rename the App that's currently not working. I renamed the folder it creates in the user's Dropbox. Maybe this will help find the root cause on your end.

     

    Thanks,
