What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.After deploying to Google App Engine, Login to youtube with unlinked google 
account (The Google account, which have no youtube channel).
2. After click the "allow access" button under "myappid.appspot.com: 
Registered, secure. This website is registered with Google to make 
authorization requests"
3.I received a page with title, "500 OK" and page text "Error: OK", with 
nothing else on the page.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I should get some error message or should get redirected to page to upload a 
new video or an existing one.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
My OS is Windows xp. Browsers are IE 7+ and FF 3.6+, Chrome, opera, safari.

Thanks

Hello Sunil—I agree that this isn't a great user experience, but lightweight 
accounts can't be used to upload videos, so by definition they won't be usable 
with YouTube Direct. There's not going to be a way to get YouTube Direct to 
work with lightweight accounts, but we can adjust the error message in a future 
revision to make it clear what's going on.

There's more details at
