Hi , when I submit the application, I have successfully got my Consumer Key
and Secret, but the app did not change the status to pending in orange
color but showed verfied and ask me to submit, when I clicked on the
submit, then the message Bad, bad server! No donut for you. came out.
Anyone know what was happening?

The new Developer Page is up, and with that, the application development

*0. Before we start...*
*Warning #0:* The new developer page is working but please bear with us
as we polish some rough edges that still exist. Please read this guide
thoroughly before using the new page. The workarounds and known issues are
highlighted
in red.
*Warning #1:* Much of the information here overrides what is currently
written in other documentation posted in code.google.com/apis/orkut. If
you see an inconsistency, please follow what we say here instead of what
you see in the older documentation.
*1. Sandbox signup*
**If this is your first time developing an application (or if you are
using a new profile you just created and you never developed an application
with it), the first thing you have to do is sign up for the orkut
Developer Sandbox http://sandbox.orkut.com/SandboxSignup.aspx. If
you've already done that some time in your life with this profile, you
don't need to do this again. If you already had signed up for sandbox in
the old development/submission/review workflow, you do not need to sign up
again. It's the same sandbox, it's just a different process!
*[ Tip ]** Use a separate Developer Profile*
If you have a personal profile on orkut, please use a separate profile for
application development. This will make your life much easier and more
organized!
*[ Tip ] If sandbox is ever offline...*
Yes, sandbox is offline sometimes because it's very new code and sometimes
it fails or becomes a little slow. If that's the case, please use Prod
Sandbox as an alternative (prod.sandbox.orkut.com). You don't have to
sign up for prod sandbox separately (your sandbox signup works for prod
sandbox too). Prod sandbox is a sandbox environment that's closer to the
production environment, since it runs the same binary and has similar flags.
*2. Sign into sandbox*
**Sign into sandbox by going to http://sandbox.orkut.com. After signing
in, notice if the URL stays as sandbox.orkut.com. If it reverts back to
www.orkut.com, something is wrong -- you probably didn't sign up for the
sandbox! If you did sign up for sandbox and you are still getting thrown
back into www.orkut.com, it's a bug: please complain at the forum.
*3. Access the New Developer Page*
**The new developer page is located at
http://sandbox.orkut.com/Main#Developer. There is no link to it from the
interface (there will be soon), so bookmark this URL or memorize it to have
it handy. However, you can only access it *AFTER* logging into sandbox (step
2). If you try to go there directly without logging in first, you will get
a 404 error as if the page didn't exist.
If this is your first time developing an orkut app, please make sure to
read at least the OpenSocial Tutorial for
Orkuthttp://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/orkut/articles/tutorial/tutorial.html,
but please bear in mind that the app testing/submission workflow written
there is *out of date* (use this one instead).
*4. Add your application to your developer profile.*
**To do this, just type the URL to its XML in the box that appears at the
top of the page (the one that says add an application by URL) and
clicking the add button. After that, you have to reload the page in
order for it to work. If you don't do that, your newly added app will not
show up. Just to be clear, this step only adds the application to your
developer profile so you can run it and test it, this does NOT cause the
application to be published. After adding your application here, it will
show in your list of applications and you can run it.
*5. Test and debug your app.*
**Now it's time to test and debug until your app is clean, shiny and
ready to hit the shelves. To run your application, simply click the View
button under its entry in the Developer Page. Once the app is running, you
will notice that the URL changes to something like
http://sandbox.orkut.com/Main#Application?appId=12345678912345
The highlighed part above is your AppID, a number that identifies your
application. If you ever have a complaint or doubt about your application,
always mention this AppID, otherwise we won't be able to do anything for
you.
*6. My changes aren't showing!*
**If you modify your app and the modification is not showing: this is
because we keep an
