Error 500 finishing huge file upload (300GiB+)
Hello, When a huge file (300GiB+) is uploaded using the upload_session API an "Error 500 Internal Server Error" is received when the last part is uploaded (/upload_session/append with close set). I retry the request but an Error 500 raises again and again. Sometimes, after more than 1 hour retrying the file uploads successfully. I am using session_type sequential. The same code for smaller files (10GiB) works perfectly. Are you aware of the problem? Is there any workaround?
Can't get Oauth to work... please help
Question or Issue I'm a little frustrated with the poor examples of dropbox... :-( I'm trying to start with Oauth, I'm trying to build a c# console app that will run for hours, since the tokens expire fast, I tried to get oauth integrated, but at step 1 it dies.. my code starts as follows: const string AppKey = "XXXXXXX"; // Replace with your App Key const string AppSecret = "XXXXXXX"; // Replace with your App Secret const string RedirectUri = "http://localhost:8080/"; // Replace with your Redirect URI // Generate a unique state for security string oauth2State = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N"); // Get the authorization URI Uri authorizeUri = DropboxOAuth2Helper.GetAuthorizeUri( OAuthResponseType.Code, clientId: AppKey, new Uri(RedirectUri), state: oauth2State, tokenAccessType: TokenAccessType.Offline ); BUT as soon as my browser opens, I get an ugly error as follows: I did check the url and the client_id is there... (of course is not XXXXXXX) https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=XXXXXXXXXX&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2F&state=65b4556d0f1f4639ac42b6cdfce08fb7&token_access_type=offline I understand my App Key is my client Id, thank you for any help you may bring.
Dropbox Access Tokens - How do they work?
I'm currently using Dropbox Access Tokens which expire pretty quickly. I'm wanting to know when I publish my app, which downloads files from Dropbox, how I get a fully working Access Token that won't expire within a few hours. Do I need a membership of some sort for this to happen? I can't be updating access tokens at all as I need to be running a business. Cheers
SSL Certificate error or SSH md5 fingerprint not Ok error.
In our application we our using third party login to dropbox using OAuth. When the app is trying to load the login page it is showing error SSL Certificate error or SSH md5 fingerprint not Ok error while communicating with https://marketing.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize and after that error shows with dropboxcaptcha.com. The login page is not able to load because of this error. Do anyone know why ? We have checked from our side regarding all the certificates in our application. The certificates are valid and have not expired. It looks like it is from the dropbox side.Request Id: eb653fb08d0e425eb445cc599c6e9e7d
