 * Hi, I’m trying to install Google Site Kit but every time that I sign in with 
   google an error message appears.
    From my dashboard I go to start setup > sign
   in with google > I log-in with my google account > I accept all the permissions
   and when I have to verify the site ownership, I click on “proceed” and here it
   is my dashboard again, with the message: “Oops! There was a problem during set
   up. Please try again. Unknown Error (code: http_request_failed).” Can you help
   me?
