    <script>
        debugger;
        if (typeof (IN) != 'undefined') {
            IN.parse();
        } else {

Does anyone know something about this error?

Solution

  • I get the same error message when I try to test in local. There is a regex in the secureAnonymous javascript file, which tries to detect from which page you are currently. (https://platform.linkedin.com/js/secureAnonymousFramework) It failed when the protocol starts with 'file://'. On remote host, it will work correctly.
