Linux Dropbox: fatal python exception
Hi everybody,
I am new to linux, taking over responsibilty due to a colleague leaving and im very lost.
Yesterday, I checked the drobox status on the terminal and it was stuck on dropbox upgrading. I restarted it and now I'm getting the following error with a load of other text:
ImportError: libatomic.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
!! dropbox: fatal python exception:
Can anybody advise how I am able to fix this? And please bear in mind I am new to all of this :)
Thank you so much for your time.
Ross
Hi everyone,
On this thread different troubles are posted! Most of them are related to missing library assignment declaration (library package in fact). For Ubuntu and other debian derived packaging systems, package name is "libatomic1". For RPM based - "libatomic". Workaround to this Dropbox developers fault could be installing the corresponding package by hands. For example, installation command, in Ubuntu, is:
sudo apt-get install libatomic1
On other systems, equivalent commands could be used.
Hope this helps. :wink:
PS: On Fedora usable command is:
sudo dnf install libatomic

Hey Ross Capatex! Thanks for joining.
We have a lot of Linux users in Community. I am not one of them, but I can help! :laughing: I will need a screenshot of the error reported to do so.
Also, please let me know the version of Dropbox you have installed there.
Looking forward to seeing the error!
Hi Fiona,
Thank you so much for replying! :)
I have attached a screenhot as you asked. I'm not sure how to check which version of dropbox it is?
Thanks.
Ross

Hi laurocesar,
Your issue is something completely different. Did you solve it? There could be two reasons - permission mistake or broken installation (for some reason). You can try fix some possible permission problems using following commands:
sudo chown -R "$USER" ~/.dropbox* chmod -R u+rw ~/.dropbox*
If nothing changes, try full daemon and settings "reset" using:
rm -rf ~/.dropbox* dropbox start -i
Hope this helps to you too. :wink:
I am having the same issue. Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?
Hi everyone,
On this thread different troubles are posted! Most of them are related to missing library assignment declaration (library package in fact). For Ubuntu and other debian derived packaging systems, package name is "libatomic1". For RPM based - "libatomic". Workaround to this Dropbox developers fault could be installing the corresponding package by hands. For example, installation command, in Ubuntu, is:

Hope this helps. :wink:

This workaround fixed my issue. Thank you.
Hey there,
after i freshly installed my fedora system i tried to install dropbox from the original source, build for Feroda (https://www.dropbox.com/download?dl=packages/fedora/nautilus-dropbox-2019.02.14-1.fedora.x86_64.rpm).
While the install tried to download the daemon i ran into the error from this threat:
https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Installs-integrations/I-m-getting-an-error-message-quot-Could-not-start-the-Dropbox/td-p/378874
i followed the solution and tried to install:sudo dnf install libatomic*
but all packages where already installed.
If i now run dropbox from the commandline:dropbox start -i
i do get an output like:

to me it looks like dropbox does not find the installed libatomic install. Can that be?
And how do i fix this?
Thank you for your help- Daphne
Hello @Daphne,
thanks if it does fit here better, i will hope i ll get helpe here :)Can you just check out the steps in the accepted solution here and let me know if this does the trick for you?
I did do that bevor posting! It did not resove the issue, and as described in my original post, belive libatomic.so.1 is simply not found by the dropbox program.
See my reply to @Здравко 's suggestion.

Hi Luis28,
Are you sure?! :grinning::grin:
Note here no file name is denoted, but package name! Accordingly the wildcards have different meaning here, little bit! Wildcard use is good thing to list different package names installed, for example, but no to install something. Use the exact name (without the star in particular). And be more careful what's the result in terminal. :wink: Maybe you have ignored something before.
Good luck.
Hey Здравко,
I am shure, i did run the "sudo dnf install libatomic" command as suggested in the solution first, but get the message:
Package libatomic-9.2.1-1.fc31.i686 is already installed. Dependencies resolved. Nothing to do. Complete!
so i belive it is installed. I had a similar issue where installing all wildcards helped, due to the fakt that i needed the development pakage or something like this, thats why i tryed that here again.
I just noticed, it is the i686 pakaged, and i installed dropbox for 86_64 systems, could that be an issue?(EDIT: installing the 32Bit dropbox package did result in the same errormessage)
I had another look at the terminal output, as far as i can see the error is a python exception, wich results form the Import Error of libatomic.so.1 (cannnot open / missing):! dropbox: fatal python exception: ['Traceback (most recent call last):\n', ' File "dropbox/client/main.pyc", line 7919, in main\n', ' File "dropbox/client/main.pyc", line 7843, in main_startup\n', ' File "dropbox/client/main.pyc", line 942, in __init__\n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine_boundary/factory.pyc", line 147, in make_default_file_system\n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine_boundary/factory.pyc", line 99, in __init__\n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine_boundary/factory.pyc", line 118, in _initialize_classes\n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine/nucleus/classic_client/sync_engine.pyc", line 276, in \n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine/nucleus/classic_client/thin_adapter/in_proc.pyc", line 98, in \n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine/nucleus/classic_client/wrapped_thin_client.pyc", line 26, in \n', ' File "dropbox/sync_engine/nucleus/thin_client/client.pyc", line 28, in \n', ' File "dropbox/foundation/metrics/amp/remote_sink.pyc", line 10, in \n', 'ImportError: libatomic.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory\n'] (error 3)
Thanks for the repply tho :)
hope you have an other suggestion up ur sleve
