I removed the dropbox files I downloaded from their site and used installed using the AUR package this time. So far so good, I hope it works better for me. Thank you for your responses. On Tue, Sep 23, 2014 at 12:53 AM, Lorenzo Bandieri < lorenzo.bandieri@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi Squall,

I use the dropbox client as provided on their web site. Everything works as expected however, when I reboot my machine it requires me to setup my local folder each time. I also run a Fedora 20 system with a similar setup and I only had to set up my local folder once.
Anyone know what would cause this behavior and how to correct it?
Do you have a particular reason for not running the dropbox package in the AUR, as Joel suggested? I'm using it without problems.
Anyway, the first thing I'd do would be to launch dropboxd from the command line to see if it outputs some useful error messages. Another thing I'd try would be to backup and then rm the .dropbox and .dropbox-dist folders (or, alternatively, setup dropbox in a clean environment, e.g. from a test user).
FWIW, my permissions are the same as yours.
Hope this helps,
Lorenzo
