SimpleTest waits on GetContextAsync() call
I am attempting to retrieve the access token via the Dropbox SDK and I am using the SimpleTest program. The browser keeps going to an error page after log in and the progress in HandleOAuth2Redirect...
Thanks! The LoopbackHost in the sample code as provided is "http://127.0.0.1:52475/", not "https://localhost/", so it does sound like that was a change you made.
I would not expect "https://localhost/" to work, as you wouldn't normally have an SSL/TLS certificate for localhost. Please trying switching that back to the original value and try again.
Thanks for the quick response. The version is 6.1.0 though it is the same in 4.9.
I have made no modifications other than to include my ApiKey value over the xxxxx in the ApiKey assignment and set the LoopbackHost to "https://localhost/" (not sure if that was a change).
Only outputs are typical symbols loaded messages. No other errors.

Thank you very much Greg. Adding the ipaddress and the port number with authorization in the console worked.
