correctly set key and password in sites.config

please let me know how to solve this issue

You will have to add access token in site’s config

Refer :
https://frappe.github.io/erpnext/user/manual/en/setting-up/articles/setting-up-dropbox-backups.html

brief :
create new app Login - Dropbox
After the app is created, note the app key and app secret and enter in sites/{sitename}/site_config.json as follows,

{
 "db_name": "demo",  
 "db_password": "DZ1Idd55xJ9qvkHvUH", 
 "dropbox_access_key": "ACCESSKEY", 
 "dropbox_secret_key": "SECRECTKEY" 
} 

I added access tokens in site config file.but it shows the same error

Try adding at site_config.json the ip of your installation, that worked for me

"dropbox_secret_key": "YOUR SECRET KEY", "host_name": "http://YOUR HOST TO ACCESS ERPNEXT" }

Restart frappe and try to test the service, run:

bench restart bench --site site1.local --force trigger-scheduler-event daily_long

Take in mind you must grant access to dropbox in Setup>DropBox Backup>Allow Dropbox Backup. You will be redirect to ERPNext page showing you “Dropbox Access Granted”

Hope it helps,
