Sitemap Generator Forum

Hi,

My standalone xml-sitemaps is installed at [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]

The link for the generator is [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]

I had to put a .htaccess file in the httpdocs folder which has the following so that the folder could be accessed:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/generator

When I create the sitemap – I get a sitemap file which clearly sees that I have 629 urls but it prints the sitemap files without the URLS. See below for an example

Total URLs in this sitemap file: 629
   URL   Last Modified   Change Frequency   Priority
1      2011-08-07T00:52:50+00:00   daily   1.0000
2      2011-08-07T00:52:50+00:00   daily   1.0000

Would you be kind enough to advise where I go from here – I have spent a lot of time on the forum looking for anyone else with a similar problem and could not find anything and I can’t figure it out – all I can think of is that it has something to do with the .htaccess file in the root directory which is required for the site to run.

Here is a copy of the contents of the .htaccess which is in the httpdocs folder above the generator folder if that helps?

Where should I go from here?

Hello,

I just tried to run generator on your site and created sitemap looks ok to me.

Hi Oleg,

If you look at the file [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]

If shows:

XML Sitemap
www.xml-sitemaps.com Total URLs in this sitemap file: 629
 URL Last Modified Change Frequency Priority
1  2011-08-07T09:00:58+00:00 daily 1.0000

5  2011-08-07T09:00:58+00:00 daily 1.0000


There are no URLS

Hello,

that sitemap file doesn't seem to be produce by our sitemap generator. Perhaps it's overwritten by some other generator or website add-on that you have installed?

Hi Oleg,

I changed the url.  If you ckick om it from the generator page you will see what I pasted above in my previous post or go here. [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]

Any idea's whjy it would not be putting URLS in the sitemap files?

Can you post a screenshot? I get a 404 not found error on the link posted above https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/forum/index.php/topic,6064.msg20099.html#msg20099

Hi Oleg,

I don't understand why you can not get to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]

Can you get to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]  ?

Below is the screenshot - would really appreciate your help

Hi Oleg,

I know you are a busy man... and appreciate your help.

Have you had a chance to look at this problem ?

Please try to run generator without "use temporary files to store crawling progress " setting.

That fixed it!

Thank you Oleg!

Any idea why? Should I change something to get it working without switching that feature off?

That might happen in case if incorrect page info is stored depending on server configuration. It's definitely not needed in your case though, sitemap generator will work even faster without that option.
