A number of people are trying to set up Google AdSense video units via YouTube and are running into a really strange error:

AdSense error: The publisher must be associated with the developer account before the developer can invoke operations on the publisher's account.

Now I'm not sure what that means, and neither should you, but it looks like a lot of people are being impacted by this error.

AdSensePro Jordan has updated the thread at Google Groups informing the community that the error is acknowledged and being addressed:

Our engineers are currently looking into this issue, and I'll update this thread when it has been resolved.

Thanks for your patience until we're able to give you more information.

Forum discussion continues at Google Groups.

Update: This was now fixed on January 11th.
