Error 503 on Dropbox website

[dav0227]

Hi,
Is Dropbox down?

I get Error 503, when I go to dropbox.com. I tried all pages, and none work!

I have also tried other browser and tested in Incognito mode and even tried on a different device - everywhere I get Error 503 😞

I also tried clearing cache and resetting the browsers, nothing worked.

Please help!

Thank you.

It broke maybe an hour-ish ago, at least from my location in Europe. Main website went to the error page after a time too.

Firing up a VPN to another location let it work [and me to log in to post this reply], so maybe a geographical issue or possibly DNS [yet to rule that out - busy elsewhere]. Only came here to see if others had an issue as status shows "all ok".

I have the same problem for about an hour. It works for me only through VPN now

Same for us

I was having problems with syncing and noticed that dropbox.com was not reachable.

It works when I changed location on VPN, thanks for that tip! 😄

Hi, same problem here. Error 503.
Can’t find any status about it 🤷🏼‍:female_sign:

Hi everyone! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. 

We’ll have a look into this with our team and keep you updated!

I am not by the machine now, but I think the system is using Cloudflare for DNS resolution whereas I know the VPN isn't. Maybe a link, maybe not.
