    I’m seeing a lot of the following errors, but not consistently – some backups are fine and some throw an error. I have tried removing and reinstalling the plugin and re-authenticating the Dropbox account several times.

    Archive size is 453.98 kB.
8 Files with 4.19 kB in Archive.
1. Try to send backup file to Dropbox …
ERROR: Dropbox API: (401) Unauthorized

  • Hmmm, interisting. But the Dropbox api sometimes has problems on dropbox side. Else you can try the new version caming today.

    Sorry but the release is delayed for next weekend.

    I have this error too.

    I get it as well. When I look at the job profile under DropBox it says it’s Authenticated, but I consistently get “ERROR: Dropbox API: (401) Unauthorized” – any ideas?

    I have changed the Dropbox Auhtorization to oAuth 2 but that will not came with the next relase. I can try to make a beta for this after the release.

    how long to wait?

    some days …

    I run about 60 backup jobs and 11 work. The other ~50 say Error: Dropbox API: (401) Unauthorized.

    I’ve verified that all the failed jobs do say ‘authenticated’ in the BackWPup configuration, so I’m not sure why this is happening? I have the jobs going off as WP Cron jobs and have them staggered so they’re not piled-up on one another (I thought this was the issue last month when I saw all the failed back-ups).

    Does this plugin work? If not can someone suggest one that does? I’ll be manually running all the SQL dumps and exports… again. :/

    I make a test version in that is a newer Autentication protocol implemented. You can find it in some days here https://github.com/inpsyde/bernina

    I tried that link (I realize it is several weeks later) and got a 404 error?

    Oh sorry, was the false link use: https://github.com/inpsyde/backwpup

    I got the same errors either with WordPress 4.1…

    I get the Dropbox 401 error each time the scheduled job runs also. Possibly something to do with having two step authentication enabled?

    I wrote to you about the problem a month ago already, do not you have responded.

    Would be very happy if you take care of the problem.

    Here’s one of my comments on:

    I’m having a similar problem. When I try to authenticate DropBox, I get the following error:

    Dropbox API: (59) Unknown cipher in list: ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-RC4-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-
