The other questions I've seen on here also seem to use the GUI. I need something that can work via command line only since I only have remote access to the machine. The instructions on the Dropbox website aren't super helpful because they assume access to the Dropbox GUI. I've uninstalled and reinstalled using the headless install instructions here, but it still puts the Dropbox folder into ~/. dropbox start runs some stuff that looks like it's starting (and I see things happening in the htop view of processes that have dropbox in them), but then dropbox status returns the same message - Dropbox isn't running! It starts syncing again if I mv /platter/Dropbox ~/Dropbox, kill the running Dropbox processes, and re-run Dropbox start. dropbox status only returns Dropbox isn't running! even though I can see the processes in htop. I've tried moving the folder with mv ~/Dropbox /platter/Dropbox. I can't figure out how to do this using only the command line/remote access. I would like to move the Dropbox folder to my internal HDD, /platter, which has enough capacity to hold all the files in my Dropbox. The Dropbox folder installs by default to ~/, which is on a low-capacity SSD that holds my OS and programs. I have Dropbox installed on a remote machine which I can only access via command line.
