| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | prophecygirl | 11/19/10 3:44 AM | I'm having the same problem with my domain http://greencoffins.net.

| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | prophecygirl | 11/19/10 3:47 AM | What virtualiroquai said. The error message isn't very helpful, they should tell us what to do to fix the problem. |
| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | LeoBurchi | 11/19/10 4:16 AM | I have the same problem too with domain http://irbur.com. Do you have some news about this issue? Do you know if Google is working on it? Thankyou! |

| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | ASNoe | 11/19/10 5:04 AM | Greetings to all.... Contrary to the "Wemaster Tools" jargon in the error, the situation you are describing is the result of an unusual DNS record in the zone file of your domain. More specifically, the dns record for your domain root (the domain na |
| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | virtualiroquai | 11/19/10 5:44 AM | Thanks for the reply - I have made the necessary changes, in fact it turns out my host as a "1-click" option to make the changes needed for Google Apps. Any luck I can verify soon. However you need to really update your error messages, as this was in |
| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | virtualiroquai | 11/19/10 5:59 AM | Actually though - my A record was correct anyway, so I still don't see why this doesn't work. |
| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | prophecygirl | 11/19/10 6:01 AM | ASNoe: Thanks! I made the DNS changes. I hope this works. *crosses fingers* |
| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | LeoBurchi | 11/19/10 6:51 AM | Thank you ASNoe for your reply. My domain was configured as shown in your post, but I continue to get the same error. Now it is verified but I cannot activate the google apps because I get the error shown before. Could you help us again? The domain n |

| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | ohadios | 11/19/10 8:40 AM | Having the same problem with my domain. I've done this plenty of times in the past but this seems to be associated with the switch to the new Google users mode.

| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | ASNoe | 11/19/10 11:50 AM | Hello again... In regards to setting the MX records to those prescribed by Google, I would consider that a coincidence since that was the first thing we tried, which was no help. Even during the error, we could access all areas of the admin control |

| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | KonaKen | 11/19/10 12:06 PM | Thanks Jolly, add "http://marchlaw.com" to the list that is not working. I confirmed my @ A record (per ASNoe's suggest) is fine, so that's not it. DNS registrar and management is through Network Solutions. |

| Re: I am unable to verify my domain because Webmaster Tools service is "not available" | KonaKen | 11/19/10 12:11 PM | ohadios - thanks, I saw that suggestion in the other thread on the subject - where I first replied.
