Internal Server Error 500 when attempting files_restore()

I am attempting to restore files that I deleted and am getting frequent internal server error (500).

I've had this issue in the past a number of months ago and it also went unresolved.  I actually found a backup copy of that directory in question so I just figured the support request would go unanswered.

 

My current issue is below.

      Any luck?  It's been running literally a week straight with almost constant 500s.  As a paying Dropbox customer, I do expect file restorations to work.  If not, this is VERY MUCH a deal breaker for me.

        Hey good timing! I just got an update. 

        This is the result of an uncaught error state where your application is trying to restore a file that has already been purged. 

        The fix from our end, when implemented, will be a more accurate error rather than a change to API behavior. 

        If we need to dig into your application a little more to understand what's happening regarding backups, restoration, and purging, then it's probably worth opening a ticket so we can get into specifics. 

        Apologies for the delay, but at least we know what is going on now!
