Thanks! By the way, it looks like you're not using the official Dropbox API v2 Java SDK. We do highly reccomend using it, if possible.

 

In any case, whether or not you're using it, it does just look like this error is due to intermittent DNS issues, so you should look into why your DNS queries may be failing occasionally.
