 * I keep getting the following repeated error, which then causes the backup process
   to stop. I have reauthenticated Dropbox a number of times, same outcome.
 * ERROR: Dropbox API: (401) Bad or expired token. This can happen if the user or
   Dropbox revoked or expired an access token. To fix, you should re-authenticate
   the user.

 * This is on a new site I am still working on, so I don’t have any cache plugins
   added as yet.
