Error 404 when trying to login from multiple browsers.
I have had a problem logging into my Dropbox accounts in the last couple of weeks. Every time I try to login, the login page flashes up briefly and then I get the dreaded 404 page. I have tried log...

I cleared my cache several times and do not have any of the other restrictions. I have also disabled autofill from Chrome and Lastpass, but I still have the error problem. The only way I can avoid the error is if I switch to the main Dropbox site from the Community. That is, I can login to the Community with no problem from any browser but I can't login to my Dropbox folders via Chrome (because it autofills a user name and immediately gives the error). If I clear the cache and wipe out cookies, I can login directly to Dropbox, but only once. This isn't a problem in Edge.

Hey k3pard03, could you let us know the version of the web browser you're using so that we can investigate further?

Version 117.0.5938.63 (Official Build) (64-bit). I'm still having to login to the community and then go to Dropbox or I get the 404 error.

Hi k3pard03! Are you seeing this error message as soon as http://dropbox.com/login loads, or does it appear after you’ve entered your email address and password?
Besides that, can we log a ticket for you and email you here?

The email address auto-fills unless I use something like https://www.dropbox.com/login?cont=%2Fh to log in. However, if I try to use that from LastPass,
it auto-fills the email address but doesn't give an option for password and then goes straight to 404. This happens even though I don't have auto-fill enabled in LastPass. If I log out (after logging into the Community and then going to main Dropbox), sometimes it auto-fills and fails and other times it doesn't auto-fill.
I can (obviously) work round the auto-fill problem by using Firefox or logging into the Community, but it would be good to understand why the 404 error is happening, as it didn't until shortly before I reported it. Up until that time, I had no problems logging into Dropbox, from LastPass or any browser on any device I have.
