Cannot authorize desktop app, desktop/oauth2 always return 500
Hi.
I've a weird issue with a single Dropbox installation: I'm unable to authorize the desktop app. I tried resetting cache several times, changing browser, whatever...
I also tried different wifi, same result.
The user profile doesn't have anything special, we have a limitation of 2 devices per user, but they have none associated.
I don't know what else to check, hints are welcome.
Posting below a request detail, in case a Dropboxer can have a look.
thanks

lorenzomilesi This should be working again now. Please try again and let us know if you're still seeing any issues. Thanks!

Server-side errors like this can be transient; can you try again to check if you're still seeing this issue?
If you are still seeing this, can you try reloading the page several times with the browser developer tools open, and copy and share several (say 5-10) 'X-Dropbox-Request-Id' response header values from the network tab for the /oauth2/authorize request? Thanks in advance!
Hi Greg, thank you for the reply. Here they are, all error 500
