How-to Facts about LinkedIn, “An error has occurred, please try again later.”

LinkedIn Red X error, An error has occurred, please try again later. Learn more

This “Red X” error happened to me after creating a linkedIn company profile for Technoogies, and then trying to create a company page, so that I could create a login app for this site. Clicking on the “Learn more” link is slightly informative, but doesn’t answer the question, “Why!”. It takes you to “Create a LinkedIn Page” and is a waste of time. We’ve already filled out the info to create a page at this point, and clicked the “Create Page” button.

This made me very unhappy, so I went straight for the “Contact us” link to help them fix their lack of detail about the real issue. Kudos to their LinkedIn Expert that quickly sent me an email with the correct information as to why I was getting this error. Now, they should link this error to a page with the info they sent to me.

The actual cause of the error, I was not ready for prime-time.
