    <p>I have the same problem as here.</p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14596744/dropbox-python-sdk-installation-error-on-windows-7-could-not-create-build">Dropbox Python SDK installation error on Windows 7 (could not create &#39;build&#39;)</a></p> <p>The user didn't say how they fixed the issue (I have tried starting again, and reinstalling Python). I asked the user to elaborate and my post was deleted because I wasn't answering the question. Sorry, I'm new here. But re-posting seems counter intuitive to me.</p> <p>Here goes...</p> <p>I installed Python 2.7, then downloaded and tried to run setup.py of the Dropbox Python SDK.</p> <p>It asked me to add the setuptools, so I did, and then tried to install the Dropbox setup.py from a CMD. After which I got the below...</p> <pre><code>C:\Python27\dropbox-python-sdk-1.5.1&gt;setup.py install running install running bdist_egg running egg_info writing dropbox_python_sdk.egg-info\PKG-INFO writing top-level names to dropbox_python_sdk.egg-info\top_level.txt writing dependency_links to dropbox_python_sdk.egg-info\dependency_links.txt reading manifest file 'dropbox_python_sdk.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' reading manifest template 'MANIFEST.in' writing manifest file 'dropbox_python_sdk.egg-info\SOURCES.txt' installing library code to build\bdist.win-amd64\egg running install_lib running build_py creating build error: could not create 'build': Cannot create a file when that file already exists C:\Python27\dropbox-python-sdk-1.5.1&gt; </code></pre> <p>What have I done wrong? I know it hasn't installed because the Dropbox module isn't there. </p> <p>I'm using Windows Server 2008 64bit if that helps.</p>

    1. COAdd `--verbose`: `setup.py install --verbose`. Also, try to remove that `build` directory you see complaints about.

    2. COYeah, probably os.remove not working because directory already exists... a little like this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11625062/cant-remove-a-folder-with-os-remove-windowserror-error-5-access-is-denied

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
