After receiving this error repeatedly and finding this thread, it occurred to me that it might be due to browser incompatibilities. I switched from Chrome to Safari, and the error disappeared. I hope that anybody finding this thread again will be able to resolve the issue just like this, without the need of clicking repeatedly and crossing fingers.

12 hours since they issued me a ticket and I'm still unable to withdraw my bitcoin and I still haven't heard from them.
You're right....the Gox is useless and I won't be bothering with them any more after this.

Why do people continue to use MtGox? Seriously... you can't get money out of MtGox, it's a black hole. Please stop using it.

I'm getting it right now with a perfectly valid wallet address.
This is pathetic.

Yeah, I eventually got mine to go through. Allthough the first few that "went through" actually didn't go through at all but were double-spends by gox (see thread on this elsewhere). I strongly suspect that the theory that this happens when gox's hotwallet is empty is spot-on. This happens whenever the gap between gox price and stamp price is narrower than usual. You get a run on withdrawals at gox which results in an empty hot wallet. Count on this taking ~2-3 days to resolve.

I'm having these errors today, on perfectly sound addresses.

Same story. I've tried with several different addresses and amounts now. No luck

Bump: trying to withdraw a silly 0.5btc, same thing still. *edit; worked a few minutes later. but damn.. that amateurism :/

I tried with a few new, unused addresses, none of them worked.
But no problem here with an old one.

Maybe too many panic requests....? Get BTC in just one sec. right now. Waiting for confirmation.......

Their bitcoin backend is probably down.

mt.gox shows a considerable growth in btc volume today - (Volume:23321 BTC) that, together with the increase in btc price (high:142), makes me think that people try to buy btc and withdraw them from mt.gox.

I had the same issue when I was withdrawing the last of my funds from MTGox... I used an old address I had already used on MTGox in the past and it worked, but trying to enter any new address that I'd never used always failed with the error indicated.
If you've withdrawn before and have the old wallet address, try entering that one and see if it works. Escape Gox while you can!

I used an old address I had already used on MTGox and it doesn't work now, neither.

Wasn't resolved long. It is happening to me now.

issue resolved for now

I have the same problem. I've tried several times and nothing. I sent a support for complaining. I do not think back use Mtgox after so many problems and delays in withdrawals.
Response MtGox support:
"Hello,
Thank you for contacting us.
It appears the error is triggered from the platform for few BTC withdrawals specially, we are currently investigating on the cause and the solution. However please drop a line if you were able to withdraw after a while. We appreciate your patience and sincere apologies for the inconveniences caused.
Best regards,
Mt.Gox Team"
EDIT:
I get all my bitcoins. We must insist.
Regards.
