  • [font="Comic Sans MS"][/font][color="#000080"][/color]I'd like to know the same thing....
    Why did my site domain verification fail? - I see no reason for that - as the file was placed in the root as required,
    and *I* can get to it - why can't Yahoo ?

  • Hi, can you check if the word "yahoo" is used in the Description or Application Name fields?

    Thanks,

  • Hi all,

    There are a few reasons why the domain verification may fail - can you please check to ensure:
    1. Yahoo (or Y!) is not used in the app name or description as Tony mentioned
    2. You are using a publically available domain name that does not include custom ports
    3. You are not using an ip address


    If you continue to have problems, can you please post all of the information that you are adding in when creating the application (e.g. app name, description, domain url, app url, etc.)

    Thanks

  • Never mind .. I found out the problem .. I was following instructions to setup Gigya Socialize wp plugin and the application url and favicon url they suggested were the ones causing the problems since those are not actual urls on the site.

  • I have question related to domain verification for yahoo Id creation .
    For gigya socialize ,If we want to mask the domain of gigya socialize.gigya.com with our own domain socialize.mydomain.com .we would do it by creating cname record .I done the same.I have created the cname record aliasing gigya socialize.gigya.com with my domain socialize.mydomain.com .

    I have used the same domain to create Yahoo Id to make it work with gigya .Now yahoo gives a message for domain verification :

    Step 1:
    Create an empty verification file : some-xxxxx.html

    step 2:Upload verification File

    server to verify socialize.mydomain.com .
    URL to check socialize.mydomain.com/some-xxxxx.html


    As I can't access socialize.mydomain.com files .I have uploaded the file to mydomain.com .Is it the correct procedure?
    Does any one have Idea on such issue
    Thank you !
