ERROR Exception of type 'DropNet.Exceptions.DropboxException' was thrown.

[spud]

have you already restarted the plugin? If you haven't please let the plugin run for some time, and see if it manage to process the file in dropbox or new files, maybe this is just a temporary problem on dropbox side.

also if the plugin is still running do you see this same error at regular intervals, or did it just threw it once?

I have been running 3.0.0.9 since Dec 5th and it worked as expected until this morning. When I exited my iOS GeoFence this morning, IFTTT dropped a file to DropBox but the Plugin threw this error again and it didn't process the file.

ERROR 0 (0) Invalid JSON string DropNet.Exceptions.DropboxException: Exception of type 'DropNet.Exceptions.DropboxException' was thrown. at DropNet.DropNetClient.Execute[T](ApiType apiType, IRestRequest request) at DropNet.DropNetClient.LongpollDelta(String cursor, Int32 timeout) at HSPI_IFTTT.FolderMonitoring.Run()

Looking back in the log the exact same error has fired 7 times since I installed 3.0.0.9, but none of the other occurrences have co-incided with a DropBox poll and it hasn't stopped subsequent files being picked up until this morning.

Let me know what else I can try and capture

Cheers
James

Will try it later. Thanks.

[spud]

strange, I don't see the same, but no it's not normal
however I found one possible reason for this behavior. Please test version 3.0.0.9 attached, and please set the log level to debug so that I can see which folders are monitored.

technical details of the fix:
the longpoll request used to monitor dropbox blocks for at least 30seconds, but the doc says (https://www.dropbox.com/developers/c...longpoll-delta) it can be up to 120seconds to avoid another problem, which I didn't know. So the 1 minute timeout I added for the http request may happen before the longpoll request returns, so I changed the timeout for the http request to 150 seconds

if you see the same error every 2min30secs with 3.0.0.9 then there is still a problem.

I am actually seeing the same. Errors more than once a minute.

My internet connection isn't that flaky

[teladog01]

Please test 3.0.0.8 and let me know. Thanks!

Been running this version for about twenty minutes and the plugin seems to be working and processing DropBox files, but it is blowing up the HS log with errors. It appears to be logging one or more errors every thirty seconds or so. I know you said to expect the error when it disconnects, but is this normal?

[cheeryfool]

ok I think I found the problem: the longpoll request that is used to monitor changes on dropbox didn't had any timeout, so if for some reason the connection between the plugin and dropbox was interrupted the request got stuck and never timed out.

I fixed it in version 3.0.0.8, so now the request will timeout and the plugin will try to reconnect every 30seconds.
You will still see some "Invalid JSON string" error when disconnection happens.

Please test 3.0.0.8 and let me know. Thanks!

Note: when you install 3.0.0.8 make sure to update the dll and not just the exe.

OK, just dropped in the exe and dll and restarted the plugin.

It makes total sense about the disconnect being the reason, though of course I wasn't clever enough to deduce that myself.

I was implementing a FiOS router auto-restart event last night, that uses Blade's BLLAN to test connectivity to a FiOS internet node and google.com. If both are down for 5mins, it cycles the outlet to reboot the router to try and resolve. Unplugging the router to implement this caused the disconnect.

Is there a way to make the error message more user friendly for a disconnect from DropBox? Just an idea.

Cheers

So 3.0.0.7 stopped working silently for me last night. It didn't pick up the IFTTT geofence generated file on my evening commute. When I restarted HomeSeer for unrelated reasons later in the evening it started monitoring again and processed the file from earlier in the evening.

What I didn't notice at the time was that it threw the following error when the plugin reconnected to HS:


Dec-03 22:43:22 IFTTTERROR 0 (0) Invalid JSON string DropNet.Exceptions.DropboxException: Exception of type 'DropNet.Exceptions.DropboxException' was thrown. at DropNet.DropNetClient.Execute[T](ApiType apiType, IRestRequest request) at DropNet.DropNetClient.LongpollDelta(String cursor, Int32 timeout) at HSPI_IFTTT.FolderMonitoring.Run()

I didn't think any more about it until I just realised it didn't process my morning commute file either. Went to look at the log and the same error was repeating every few seconds throughout the night. I restarted the plugin and it processed the file and hasn't generated any errors in the 20mins since.

I have not noticed the plugin stop working since installing this version. But, it's only been three days and I have also restarted HS a couple times in that time frame.

I will keep monitoring and post back when/if it stops processing.

I have been running 3.0.0.7 for about a week and it hasn't stopped processing Dropbox files, but I have seen one error in the debug log:

I have been running version 3.0.0.7 for more than 10 days now, and the plugin still monitor and process files correctly.

I occasionally see some errors looking like this

ERROR 0 (0)
Invalid JSON string

but it doesn't prevent the plugin from running properly.

let me know how it goes for you. Thanks

[zigmund]

same error

I've been having the same errors occasionally. will try the 3.0.0.7 version.
using hs3 3.0.0.128 on linux

I've been having an ongoing issue with the plugin where it will stop processing the Dropbox files. The plugin will work fine for a day or two, sometimes a week or two. But eventually after a period of time, I notice that events that rely on the IFTTT plugin stop triggering. Also, this error will start appearing in the log:

IFTTT	ERROR Exception of type 'DropNet.Exceptions.DropboxException' was thrown.

After looking at the log a little closer, this error seems to be occurring independent of the problem with the plugin not processing Dropbox files, so I don't know if they are related. The error above does not repeat at a precise interval, but does occur on a semi-regular basis, maybe once every couple of hours, even when the plugin is working correctly.

I will install the 3.0.0.7 version today and reply back in a few days.

[cheeryfool]

Yes, will do. I'll add some nearer geofences and test over the weekend.
