MX23 - Dropbox Invalid URL - No Firewall issue

#1 Post by kloos »

Hi all,

A fresh installation of MX23 and I can't access Dropbox. As per another thread, I have disabled the firewall but am still getting the invalid URL message. Any help would be appreciated as I store all of my files on Dropbox so this is critical for me.

Many thanks.

Re: MX23 - Dropbox Invalid URL - No Firewall issue

I had it happen two times. Once when I installed Beta 2 (a month ago?) and then when installing the MX23 full release.

The first time, I had posted here about it. A few days later I saw an update in the MX Repo. Installed and all good.

2nd time I got "certificate mismatch" (again) as well as "Invalid URL". Posted on the DB forum and it was 18+ hours of crickets chirping.

I switched to Mega for 10X more space and a MUCH more featured appointed client.
