What does this error mean?

[SEOSponge]

We recently merged our Google + & Google Local pages and sent a request to Webmaster tools to connect the Google + page to our website.

The message was successfully sent.

However, when clicking the 'Approve or reject this request' link, the following error message appears:

'Can't find associate request'

Anyone know what we are doing incorrectly?

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Hi Cushing2013,

I've not seen this error message myself. Let me see what I can find out. I'll return to this thread as soon as I have further information.

I think this is directly related to account ownership - it is a long story but one of our staff members created the profile and associated it with her personal gmail account originally.

This required making our company a manager of the Google + page (as opposed to an owner.)

We are now waiting to be able to transfer the ownership of the page.

I THINK this will eliminate this issue.   If it does, I will be back on here to update.

I am still open to any suggestions!
