Invalid unknown request error: Cannot determine request type. Is this ad unit id correct?

After updating to "new abMob", it appears to have this problem... use this code, but nothing displays:

adView = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, "pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx");

and got warning:

Invalid unknown request error: Cannot determine request type. Is your ad unit id correct?

What's wrong? Using android emulator, admob 6.4.1

Solution

  • The adUnit Ids in the new Admob console are of the form:

    ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/YYYYYYYYYY

    This is what your problem is. Go check your Admob console and update your app to reflect that.
