Issue Dropbox Backup Extension - Internal Server Error

Darren Lovelock

New Pleskian
Hi, i'm having trouble with the Dropbox Backup extension, the backup is constantly failing and in the control panel when you hover over the Status column it either has a blank message or displays 'Internal server error'.

I receive no email from task scheduler when it fails and in the backup logs under /var/log/plesk/PMM/ the backups appear to complete successfully and end in 'pmm-ras finished. Exit code: 0'.

I contacted the extension developer but he says he cannot help, I wondered if anyone here could assist?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
Hi Darren,

The 'Internal server error' is likely returned from the Dropbox API.
I have found many concerns with the same error in the Dropbox community: Search - Dropbox Community

I'd recommend collecting logs with Dropbox API requests.
  • Increase verbosity in /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/panel.ini with:
Code:
[log]
filter.priority = 7
  • Run the backup
  • Check the log /var/log/plesk/panel.log after the failure
  • Cut API requests and responses from the log
  • If there are errors in API responses, then create a ticket: Login - Dropbox
