linux problem

[davidgrills]

Hey,

I have a problem with Dropbox on Ubuntu 14.04.

Last week everything worked fine, but now there is an error.

"Dropbox is the easiest way to share and store your files online. Want to learn more? Head to https://www.dropbox.com/

Error: Trouble connecting to Dropbox servers. Maybe your internet connection is down, or you need to set your http_proxy environment variable.

URL that failed to download: https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64
Error: None"

Does anyone has an idea?

Thanks 

David

Hi @davidgrills,

It's a strange files configuration in your install. 🤔 Is your control script up to date? Can you post the result of following command (in terminal):

dropbox version

If the script is not up to date you can download and install the latest package.

To make sure everything is on clear, remove any leads of current configuration and daemon install using following command:

rm -rf ~/.dropbox*

The last command will unlink the application and you will need link it back (as a new install).

If needed, you can install the daemon by hand, using following command:

rm -rf ~/.dropbox-dist; cd ~; wget -O - "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64" | tar xzf -

Hope this helps.

Hi 3ApaBKo,
my installation was the repository-package: nautilus-dropbox 1.6.1-1

But I did as you said and now it works great!

Thank you very much!

I tried it bevor to install the latest version, but didn't know it was a good idea to remove these folders.

So thank you very much again!
