Google SitemapAdmin

[ronlee67]

I am getting the same error for the Microsoft ping.


Have no clue how to correct. In my case I had just upgraded from ZenCart 1.3.7 to 1.3.8a. After upgrading ZenCart I decided to upgrade to the latest version of Google Sitemap Admin (1.3.19). Executed uninstall.sql first, then loaded the new files and ran install.sql. Everything seems to be working normally except for this error report. Don't know if MSN accepted the ping as I cannot find a dashboard on MSN like there is on Google. I presume the notification failed. My sitemap location is correctly listed with www in the robots.txt file.

This self-corrected a few hours later. I presume there was a problem at MSN at the time.... either that or I needed to exit my browser and restart the browser as no further changes were made to my site during the problem.

Okay so here is my issue and I'll try my best to expalin it.

I have created my site map through site map admin and it creates the three site maps for the index, categories and products. However it displays:

Generated Google Sitemap Index Successfully - http://www.mydomain.com/sitemapindex.xml

The above message is displayed for all three files but the problem is that they are really not there and were actually created in the http://www.mydomain.com/mystore/ directory which is the correct place.

And eventhough sitemapindex.xml, sitemapcategories.xml and sitemapproducts.xml are all in http://www.mydomain.com/mystore/ - sitemapindex.xml has the path of the other two files as http://www.mydomain.com/sitemapcategories.xml and http://www.mydomain.com/sitemapproducts.xml

And if I hit send to crawler in step 2 of site map admin, it sends the sitemap path of http://www.mydomain.com/sitemapindex.xml

So this is causing the search engines to fail when they try and crawl my site.

Any ideas on how to fix? Thanks.

Exactly same problem! Anyone any ideas?

Another issue is the sitemapezpages.xml，it always shows error, so I delete it from sitemapindex.

And for multilanguage site, I found only one language is indexed in google, am not sure why, and is looking at if another language's info can be shown.

All installed and it creates the sitemaps ok...but the ping isn't working, it says:

Warning: file() [function.file]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/*******/public_html/googlesitemap.php on line 124

There are similar errors for yahoo etc...any ideas??

How should my robot.txt be set up if my store is not in my root dir? It is in www.jhelectonics.com/catalog, but my robot text is in my root.

I'm getting a "PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 25165824 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 3381193 bytes) in ../jhelectronics.com/catalog/googlesitemap.php on line 307" Why am I getting this error?

So far, GoogleSitemapAdmin is working great, thank you very much! I haven't had any problems with it and those spiders are keeping busy on my site. Google doesn't report any errors.

So, here's my 'problem'... I have a bunch of link pages generated by the linkadmin add-on that are not being indexed. I have actually had some link refusals because my link pages aren't 'pageranked'. I don't have to say how important good inbound links are, but to get those good inbound links one must reciprocate and in order to get the better sites to do so, my link pages need to be indexed.

Is there a fairly simple way to do this?

Hi
When I go to Google it says I have an error
Unsuported file format
This is what it says where should I change this?

Unsupported file format Your Sitemap does not appear to be in a supported format. Please ensure it meets our Sitemap guidelines and resubmit.

Some things you might check are:

That the file uses the correct header. For a Sitemap file, the header can look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
For a Sitemap index file, the header can look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<sitemapindex
xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas<wbr>/sitemap/0.9">
That the namespace in the header is "http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9". Note that this must end in 0.9. If it ends in .9, you'll see an error.

That each XML attribute is enclosed in either single quotes (') or double quotes (") and that those quotes are straight, not curly. If you use a word processing program, such as Microsoft Word, you may find that it inserts curly quotes.

I am having the exact same problem also. Does anyone have a fix for this? My robots.txt file is located in http://www.mydomain.com/robots.tx but my store is at http://www.mydomain.com/mystore

Thanks in advance!

I have the same issue.

It looks like it is down to the base url which shows as:

Save path - "/kunden/homepages/27/d171695210/htdocs/xxx/store/"
Base URL - "http://www.xxx.co.uk/"

but shouldnt this be:

Save path - "/kunden/homepages/27/d171695210/htdocs/xxx/store/"
Base URL - "http://www.xxx/store/"
