I get this error message

resolved, uninstalled the nautilus-dropbox and installed:

https://www.dropbox.com/pt_BR/install?os=lnx, version 64 bits

previously tried to install the version 32. I remembered that my debian is 64 bits

thanks

Are you trying to run the dropbox script as root?

Is there a file in /root/.dropbox-dist/dropbox-lnx.x86-3.2.9/dropbox?

celso c.1

David; yes I am as User root

use debian 7, in monitor mode, not use Graphical mode

to run the command, got the error described above.

I needed to reboot my linux server after running Dropbox successfully for over a year.

I then proceed to do the following:

./dropbox.py start

Starting Dropbox....Done!

./dropbox.py status

Starting....

The problem is that the status always returns "Starting...." and nothing is getting synched to my server.

Please help!
