Uploading large files to Dropbox times out

#1 Post by AAMdigital » 2023-01-25 17:21

After initial success with uploading large (300>100GB) video files to a Dropbox (for Business) folder, I am now finding that the connection times out when the file reaches 100%. I get the following error:

Error: Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity
Error: File transfer failed

The upload proceeds without issue until it reads 100%, at which point the error above is generated and the upload begins again. It's a bit difficult to troubleshoot because the upload generally takes about 12 hours!

Thanks in advance for any advice. (BTW I have FileZilla Pro but as a subscription through the Mac App Store, so apparently no order number.)
