Hi I have tried to upload 3 files of around 40GB each several times in dropbox - no success. Small file of 40 KB is fine. Upload starts fine, but after some hours I am getting error "something went wrong while uploading this file. There was a server error during the upload request". setup: dropbox in FF on windows10 2004 64 bit laptop.

Pls. see https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-files-folders/Uploading-File-via-Website-Gets-Server-Error/m-p/489913#M187413 for details Any suggestion? br Peter Lauritzen

Why don't you use the native Dropbox client?

I can not use client, since this upload is to dropbox.com only

Hi As mentioned I have already identified a WA e.g. by using chrome instead of firefox. So is anybody looking into this firefox issue? br Peter
