Install headless on Linux 20.04 RUST PANICKING

Hi - looking for ideas on this, as it is the first time I've seen it... I download and install the client app on a Linux Ubuntu 20.04 server, set up on AWS. All seems to go well until I issue: ...

Hannah - I am not sure if you saw the post - I meet the minimum requirements so I am hoping there is something more that you could suggest.

Currently I'm attempting to use WebDAV and, occasionally Rsync to get the files I need moved, but they are not uploading reliably and I really need Dropbox to work!

I solved this by moving from Debian turnkey core to ubuntu and then everything worked.

      Happy Monday, Hal and leif_71, and sorry for the delay here, I was looking into this on my end. 

      Are you still having this issue? 

      If so, can I reach out to you via email, so we can look into this more closely?

      Thanks! 

      (PS. Just let me know if the machine having this issue is connected to the Hal MacLean account or the halmaclean one)

        Hi there,

         

        I have exactly the same issue in Ubuntu server 20.04 running on vmware vsphere.

        Maybe this is related with ubuntu version and dropbox?

         

        I have dropbox running on several ubuntu vm's on the same host.

         

        Any help would be appreciated! Thnak you
