Dropbox stopped working on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS; advanced re-install did not help

Dropbox stopped working on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS; advanced re-install did not help

Hi,

I have been using DB for years; these days, I use it to sync files across 3 computers; all of them with a different version of Ubuntu Linux. On two of these computers, DB works great. However, one one computer at home (with initially Ubuntu 18.04 LTS), DB suddenly stopped working. Specifically, it would take forever to sync the 2-3 small txt files that needed to be synced.

I tried different things to solve the issue, but it made things worse:

* stop and restart dropbox (using the CLI tool)

* re-install DB, using both methods described here (deb file and CLI):

https://www.dropbox.com/install-linux

* doing an advanced (Linux) re-install, as explained here:

https://help.dropbox.com/installs-integrations/desktop/advanced-reinstall?fallback=true

* tried to install an older version, as suggested somewhere (sorry, can't find the corresponding ticket any more)

* moved the Dropbox folder to a different location (so to as re-install my files from scratch), and "unlink" the computer (on the web-site: parameters > security > devices) so as to link it again later.

* updated the OS of the computer to Ubuntu to 19.04.

Nothing worked. Whenever I re-install, I do *not* get the pop-up which asks to which account I should link this computer; nothing in the terminal either when running from the terminal.  When I click on the DB icon (on query the CLI tool), it simply says "connecting". When I select preferences > Account, it says it is not connected to any account. (But again, it does not let me select an account!) Current version is v82. If I try to install an older version, it automatically updates to this (apparently non-working) version.

To make things worse, I tried to log in the DB web site from the same computer with my browser, it did not work either! I enter my login, my password, but then it just stalls. This is using Firefox, but I tried with Chrome and Chromium as well, to no avail. Apperently a CAPTCHA should show up, but it does not, whatever the browser. I also tried in private mode.

Wit's end... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nicolas

Sorry, what do you mean by "not posting all"? I gave you the output for each line of the third box?

Where I can know from where exactly stops execution and what exactly is the command output you have killed? I explicitly noted last command bunch to be executed in new terminal, not to kill anything!

Ok, I'm up to here. I have no idea the internal application structure (I'm not Dropbox developer). So, can't guess what exactly is going on. Sorry. Let's hope some real Dropbox's expert (if any here) could help you.

Hi, I'm having very similar problems (also using ubuntu 18.04, with 3 computers connected in total), and much the same issue of getting stuck while syncing small files, and tried many of the above mentioned solutions.

I just tried the last recommendation, and it didn't work, I am appending the results. First, at the end of the installation I ran the 3 commands as requested:

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ dropbox status
Syncing 10 files
Uploading "FullRhs_SFW6.m"...
Can't sync "FullRhs_SFW6.m"
Syncing 9 files...

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ cat ~/.dropbox/dropbox.pid; echo
13354

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ ps ax -o pid,comm | grep dropbox
13354 dropbox

 

 

 

and here is the full ouput of the installation:

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ killall dropbox
yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ rm -rf ~./Dropbox ~/.dropbox ~/.dropbox-dist
yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ ps ax -o pid,comm | grep dropbox
yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$

Welcome to the club... 🙂

You indeed seem to have exactly the same problem; including (if I understand correctly) the fact you have to kill dropboxd the first time you run it.
For me, none of the solutions posted on this or other threads seems to work so far. I am in touch with support, they asked me to send log files, maybe they will find a fix.

Hi @yuvi,

In your case seems the daemon started successfully. Next, some other problem brings up, some problem related to communication between daemon and Nautilus plugin. Try uninstall your plugin, ensure all is clearred enough and install again latest version according your system (32 or 64 bit). After uninstall check that some files are gone, using following command:

sudo rm /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0/libnautilus-dropbox.so /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libnautilus-dropbox.so

Will be ask for your password (sudo).

Also seems there are some permission problems, related to some files ("FullRhs_SFW6.m" for example). You could try fix such issues one by one or try fix all together using following commands:

sudo chown -R "$USER" "$HOME/Dropbox"
chmod -R u+rw ~/Dropbox

Also, you can check if there are some symlinks, using following command:

ls -alR ~/Dropbox | grep " -> "

If some output brings up, check if links are compliant.

Good luck.

Hey, thanks for your help. I did the things you suggested, and it did not seem to have any change.

I uninstalled the plugin (at least I think I did, using the command "sudo apt-get remove nautilus-dropbox",

I checked and the files were gone as you said:

 

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ sudo rm /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0/libnautilus-dropbox.so /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libnautilus-dropbox.so
rm: cannot remove '/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0/libnautilus-dropbox.so': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libnautilus-dropbox.so': No such file or directory

 

and then installed it again (via some GUI that came up after I followed your link).

I tried to fix the premission issues (using the 2 commands you gave), and it didn't seem to have an effect. I would be happy to try and fix it manually with 10 files, but I don't even know what the other 9 files are, and I checked with the one file I know about (FullRhs_SFW6.m), and it seems updated, so I don't really know what I should do about it.

There is no symlink issues:

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ ls -alR ~/Dropbox | grep " -> "
yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ 

and I also tried to restart ubuntu, but nothing there either.

If it helps, here's the output from the last time I stopped and started dropbox:

Am I wrong or some errors dissappeared now? What's resulting "dropbox status" now? :-?

It seems the same to me, but maybe I missed something.

dropbox status gives the same:

yuval@yuval-ubuntu:~$ dropbox status
Syncing 10 files
Uploading "FullRhs_SFW6.m"...
Can't sync "FullRhs_SFW6.m"
Syncing 9 files...

Try following:
ls -alR ~/Dropbox | grep "FullRhs_SFW6.m"
Let see the result.

Need more support?
