 Posted: Fri Apr 16, 2021 3:10 am Post subject: dropbox: "No such file or directory" |
 |
|
I am trying to run dropbox on a headless machine.
When I try to run the "dropbox" command, as either user or root, it gives me this error:
| Code: |
root $ dropbox start
/opt/bin/dropbox: line 15: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
|
Earlier, I had this error too:
| Code: |
root $ /etc/init.d/dropbox start
/etc/init.d/dropbox: line 19: /home/ssh_uploader_anon/.dropbox/dropbox.pid: No such file or directory
|
I fixed that one by running | Code: | | mkdir /home/ssh_uploader_anon/.dropbox |
as that user.
But now:
| Code: |
ssh_uploader_anon $ dropbox start
/opt/bin/dropbox: line 15: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ ll /opt/dropbox/dropbox
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12475493 Apr 15 22:39 /opt/dropbox/dropbox
ssh_uploader_anon $ file /opt/dropbox/dropbox
/opt/dropbox/dropbox: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, BuildID[sha1]=54c03dd637a392112533dac213a24d2f64164563, not stripped
ssh_uploader_anon $ /opt/dropbox/dropbox start
bash: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ /opt/dropbox/dropbox help
bash: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ /opt/dropbox/dropbox --help
bash: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ dropbox
/opt/bin/dropbox: line 15: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ dropbox --help
/opt/bin/dropbox: line 15: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ dropbox help
/opt/bin/dropbox: line 15: /opt/dropbox/dropbox: No such file or directory
ssh_uploader_anon $ strace /opt/dropbox/dropbox start
execve("/opt/dropbox/dropbox", ["/opt/dropbox/dropbox", "start"], 0x7ffed6e60888 /* 45 vars */) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
strace: exec: No such file or directory
+++ exited with 1 +++
|
I suspect the `/opt/dropbox/dropbox` executable is trying to open some file and failing, but produces a pretty meager error message. I am not sure what file it's trying to open, so I can't help it this time. I tried using `strace` (as above), but the output doesn't make sense to me: I don't understand why that execve call would fail, given that `/opt/dropbox/dropbox` totally exists.
Any ideas? |

Taking a hint from the related Dropbox thread, I have updated from =net-misc/dropbox-118.4.460 to =net-misc/dropbox-120.4.4598:
| Code: | root $ eix -e net-misc/dropbox
[I] net-misc/dropbox
Available versions: 118.4.460^ms ~119.4.1772^ms (~)120.4.4598^ms {X selinux}
Installed versions: 120.4.4598^ms(07:15:09 04/17/21)(-X -selinux)
Homepage: https://www.dropbox.com/
Description: Dropbox daemon (pretends to be GUI-less)
|
Unfortunately, on my system, the problem remains.
(After the update, I also tried running `/etc/init.d/dropbox restart` as root, then ran `source /etc/profile` as the user, just to remove some possibilities of stale system state persisting the problem. After that I'm still getting the "No such file or directory" error.) |

| What is the output of emerge --verbose --info net-misc/dropbox ; ls -l /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ; file -L /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2? |
