I have never used DropBox, but answers to the DropBox forum suggest that
DropBox has problems with locked files. SQLite relies on file locking
for multi-user concurrency. Apparently open MS Office Word and Excel
files are affected by the same problem:

To me, this looks like a DropBox problem rather than a SQLite problem.
