You can try here:

However, I suspect an Apple server problem. Many users have been reporting problems with Messages and Facetime today.

I cannot activate Imessage on my iphone 4. When I enter my Apple ID it keeps coming up with 'An error occurred during avtivation. Try again' Can anybody help ?
It seems a lot of people are having this problem...you can try restarting your device, making sure Date & Time settings are on automatic, or changing your DNS to 8.8.8.8. However, most people posting about this problem have tried everything including data resets, restores, etc. and it doesn't seem to work. It seems to be an issue on Apple's end with the servers...hopefully they can resolve it quickly

Try signing into iMessage and FT and I get "an error occurred during activation, try again"
I get text messages from non iphone users but when someone with an iphone send s me a message, I don't get it. So I checked my settings under imessage and it says I'm not logged in. When I try to login, it says, "An error occurred during activation, try again." Nothing is wrong with my internet connection and I can download apps just fine. I went to Settings>Store and logged out of my account and logged back in and still have that problem. Any suggestions?

Please can somebody help me? My imessage does not work, I try to activate it but it says an error ocurred during activation. try again
Its possible that the server can be down now. Have you ever used it before? If you want, try resseting the phone by just holding the sleep/wake key and the home button together for 10 seconds. Then wait 5 seconds when it turns off and press the sleep/wake button to turn it back on. Then try it again. Let me know what the results are.

SSince update 8.1.2---iMessage activation will not occur. Says "an error occurred during activation. Try again
The update to iOS 8.1.3 was supposed to fix that issue, not cause the problem. Unfortunately, it didn't work for many. take a look at one of these two ongoing discussions. You might be able ro find help in one of them.

I cannot sign in FaceTime , it keeps on saying an error occurred during activation, please sign in again
Hey!
I too was facing the same problem but have found a solution for it. The problem is most likely because of the 'Date & Time' setting. Change to setting to 'Set Automatically' and then try reconnecting to facetime/imessage.
Hope this helps you as it did to me. -
