Where is that message that says "the server not support ipv6" coming from?

What happens when you nslookup content.dropboxapi.com from your virtual server?

Can you add an alias for the api endpoint on your virtual server?

In my server not support IPV6 because it shared hosting .

When I run nslookup content.dropboxapi.com I got this output

nslookup content.dropboxapi.com Server: 75.98.161.224 Address: 75.98.161.224#53

Non-authoritative answer: content.dropboxapi.com canonical name = block-api.dropbox-dns.com. block-api.dropbox-dns.com canonical name = block-api-iad.dropbox-dns.com. Name: block-api-iad.dropbox-dns.com Address: 45.58.70.36

Yeah, but ... that's OK, right? Dropbox isn't IPv6. your server isn't IPv6. so they should have no problem.

I don't think it's the IPv-whatever part which is causing the problem.
