Google AdWords LogoIt seems as if many Google advertisers using Google AdWords are receiving a weird error named "Ad Groups with No Ads."

The error is at the top of the AdWords interface and it reads, "ad groups with no ads (X) View." When you click on it to view the ads with this issue, all the ads listed have active running ads.

One said, "What's Going On?"

Update: A Googler on Twitter did respond:
