Dropbox in Ubuntu "Dropbox isn't running! Dropbox is already running!"
Dear Dropbox community I have been struggling with my Dropbox on Ubuntu for a while now. The icon on the system tray had disappeared, but files were still syncing. I tried a couple of things to make the icon come back, according to previous users who experieced similar scenario. It did not work, and now I upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 (from 17.04). I removed Dropbox, reinstalled it and Dropbox won't even open anymore. When I start it from the command line, it says "Dropbox isn't running! Dropbox is already running!" Now I am getting this error when starting Dropbox (although it won't start, it justs loads the process): Gtk-Message: 08:12:04.932: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar" Done! dropbox: load fq extension '/home/rodrigo/.dropbox-dist/dropbox-lnx.x86_64-51.4.66/PyQt5.QtDBus.so' (dropbox:3330): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: 08:12:04.974: cannot register existing type 'GdkDisplayManager' (dropbox:3330): GLib-CRITICAL **: 08:12:04.974: g_once_init_leave: assertion 'result != 0' failed (dropbox:3330): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 08:12:04.974: g_object_new_with_properties: assertion 'G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed When I click on the Dropbox icon in the apps page, nothing happens. Any ideas?7.8KViews0likes13Comments
