MediaMonkey 5.0.2.2531 - DropBox connect [#18702]

[Peter Machaj]

Hi there

I'm unable to add Dropbox to 'Storage and Services' under 'Devices & Services'.
When I click to add Dropbox, it takes me to browser to permission allowance page.
I click to Accept, next I'm redirected to:

http://localhost:9465/MM/auth/?code=pkps.....................................................

It seems to be MediaMonkey local service, and it's probably not listening there.

Test note: My main installation with existing of DropBox worked, but once i removed it I could not create new. Tested 5.0.0, official 5.0.1 and latest 5.0.2, so unfortunately it looks like service/platform issue because Auth pass with message "Authorization was successful. Switch to MediaMonkey." and http://localhost:9465/ works correctly or you would had no interaction Assigned for analyzing.

Hi, I've tested simply 'http://localhost:9465' and it gives me message:

Syntax Error: Unexpected end of JSON input. Finally it crashes MediaMonkey process.

Thanks for reporting!

Until an update is available the workaround is to replace current
[MM5 install folder]\scripts\DropBox\helpers\cloudServices_add.js
by this

To explain it is normal as MM just temporary use service port 9465 to communicate with browser and it is specifically formatted specifically for the service and communication. It is not normal address so it is normal that you can't access.

I can confirm that Ludek fix works normally and it is also included in next version.
