Wget or Curl is not downloading a folder as expected via the CLI in Linux
I am trying to download a shared folder into a unix server. I first copied that folder to my dropbox and then generated a share link. The link looks something like this: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxxx/AB1xxxxxxx?rlkey=123456abc&dl=1 I have tried multiple CLI commands. Some of them are below: wget https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxx/AB1xxxxxx?rlkey=12345abc&dl=1 wget https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxx/AB1xxxxxx?rlkey=12345abc&dl=1 --content-disposition curl -L -o output.zip https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxx/AB1xxxxxx?rlkey=12345abc&dl=1 None of them download the folder but download some script instead. I have tried pasting the URL on the web browser and that works and I can see a ~140GB zipped file starting a download. Also, I have also tested TLS connection as I saw in another post that it might have an impact. TLS v1.2 seems to be working in my CLI but not v1.3. Any help is greatly appreciated as I have been stuck on this for so many days now! TIA
I'm sharing a file via link, but it forces users to install the Dropbox app.
Been using DropBox for a few years without issue. Now when I share a link … users complain that they can’t access the file and instead get page to download DropBox. For one off file sharing I would not 3d left to be forcing them to install app. Here is sample link [personal information removed per the Community's Guidelines] It brings user to window as in picture attached here: (Can’t seem to be able to add a picture direct) https://flic.kr/p/2qS6nGbHalfway through download cuts out and says network connection error
When trying to DL an MP4 file 6GB, it will cut out and say network connection error, my internet connection is fine and I have never had an issue like this before, the download will reach around 3Gb and stop, my computer doesn't go to sleep and will remain open whilst the download is taking place. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
"There was an error downloading your file" error on the website
I keep having the same issue, connection works, have tried to clear the cache, incognito window, different browser, single file vs folder, some of them are word documents so the lightest possible thing and still get the exact same pointless message "error while downloading your file". It worked fine until yesterday so I have really no idea of what could be causing this.
Receiving error code 0x80070185 upon downloading or syncing a 72.5 GB file on my desktop
I am currently trying to transfer a 72.5 gb file to my laptop so I can start editing it, but everytime I go to download it I am unable to open the file or to sync the file to my desktop. Does anyone have a workaround or a solution for this issue? Thank youNetwork error downloading large files with Dropbox Transfer
I received a "protected" link with a few files from a client. I'm required to sign in to access large documents. However, upon signing in (with the correct credentials), the following message is displayed: Network Error! Please verify your information and try again How do I fix this? I've tried multiple browsers (including in private/incognito modes), cleared cache and history, closed all extensions, turned on and off VPNs, changed my password but nothing works.
Cannot download older versions of files from the site, error 400
My phone corrupted one of my Excel files, so I want to download an older version on my PC to replace the corrupt file, but I get an error 400 when I try to access the list of versions. Does this mean is so corrupt that I can't open an older version?
