vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator

[iojam]

Check the html source of the page when that happens, possibly there is a database error.

Those are the errors my error log is giving me. I keep getting 500 errors.

Hello iojam,

We're using vBulletin 3.7.5, have vBSEO 3.2 and just installed version 2.5 of the Sitemap Generator.

The problem is that when we try to run the task, it outputs this

[SECTION START] blog tags [6,796.6Kb mem used] [20,219,278s (+281s)]
[create sitemap file] filename: sitemap_502.xml.gz, number of urls: 4 [6,799.7Kb mem used] [20,219,278s (+0s)]
[create sitemap in text format] part #503 [6,799.9Kb mem used] [20,219,278s (+0s)]
[create sitemap index] filename: sitemap_index.xml.gz, number of sitemaps: 502 [6,927.0Kb mem used] [20,219,278s (+0s)]

Then just dies.

Any ideas as to what might cause this behavior? We're not getting any SQL errors and the upgrade to version 2.5 went smoothly and was done correctly.

[rinkrat]

I had that same problem and deleted the stuff in the /data subdirectory (after being instructed to) then ran it again and it ran fine.

[Silviu]

Thank you for the tip, worked like a charm.

[mdrs2]

my "vbseo sitemap" time is mismatch with my Forum Time... (my Forum time is +3.5)
How can in set it ?

[mdrs2]

no anyBody Help me ? :(

[iojam]

MTGDarkness,

make sure that you did NOT change permissions for vbseo_getsitemap.php file (it should be set to 0644).

mdrs2,

that's a server time and it doesn't affect sitemap generation.

[MTGDarkness]

The permissions were wrong; I reset them to 644. Should the other files also be 664? Every file (and folder) in the folder is set to CHMOD777. I reset the file you mentioned to 664, but I'm still getting these 500 errors...

[iojam]

You should apply 0777 permissions to vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder *only*.

[MTGDarkness]

Yeah, k. I CHMODded everything else to the usual level (other files to 664 and the other folder to 775) and it still gives me internal errors.

[iojam]

What is the message you see in the logs now?

[MTGDarkness]

Exactly the same one.

[MixMakers]

Hi, I tried to run the sitemap generator..It was working for a while and then I got this message:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 255051016 bytes) in /home/rxqptdcc/public_html/forums/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_sitemap_functions.php on line 1537

how can i fix this?

[payman]

i dont see my setting sitmap
i see only report
in control panel

???? why ???

[iojam]

MTGDarkness,

try to remove vbseo_sitemap folder and then reinstall it, keeping all permissions unchanged, except for data/ folder.

MixMakers,

try to disable text sitemap option and remove *.gz files from data/ folder.

Im a VBSEO owner do i need to install this separate?

[jw00dy]

Yes they are two separate products from vBSEO

[Skierpetros]

I can't see my Google Sitemap Index URL as it give a 404 page error.... please help me..

[David Bott]

Hey VbSEO support.

Ok, got a question for you. Our site, AVSFORUM, is quite large. Each night the Sitemap runs and it does MILLIONS of entries and sends it to Google and the others. I really do not think this is a good thing as it can not index the site that quick. So I am thinking that maybe I have the site map settings incorrect or something for it to send such data each night.

So the question...For large sites, what would be your recommended settings?

Attached is a screen shot showing what I mean. (Yes, we get that many new posts and threads in a day as it also did run the night before. :) (Talking about the + part of the report))

Side note...It has been quite some time that I attempted to use your SEO product for in the past, for those who recall, it was a total nightmare with server loads. This goes back a few years. So, has this improved. Please feel free to contact me outside this thread to talk again about it.

Thank you.

[MTGDarkness]

I think it does it wonky automatically. This is right after upload.

[iojam]

Skierpetros,

make sure that you created .htaccess file as described.

David Bott,

it's ok to resubmit it. Google will read your sitemap and determine changes in it.

MTGDarkness,

permissions for vbseo_sitemap/ folder should be 0755. All php files - 0644.

[MTGDarkness]

Hey, it worked! Thanks. :)

[Skierpetros]

I tried but nothing happen ... i have also talk with my webhost...

[Skierpetros]

finally we made it :D cheers to all :D

hi
in vBSEO Sitemap Settings / If you have vBSEO, include old urls Which is better for me ?

YES OR NO ?

i don't have VBSEO . plz help me

Google has a problem with sites that are using sitemaps generated with this Mod that also run TFseo or another URL and SEO mod.

Google webmaster tools says my sitemap has duplicate entries, because it is listing the original url and also the 301 redirected (SEO friendly URL) one.

It is not listing my site with an index in the top of Google which it used to do... and Im pretty sure its because the sitemap is freaking them out.


has anyone got a solution so that the tool just generates the rewritten URLs or any alternative ideas what to do?

Changing the settings to 'include or exclude' old URLs doesnt work...presumably because Im not running VBSEO bu TFseo...

Im confused with the htaccess file

My vbseo for google and yahoo sitemap is in my forum folder "as it should"

but in the htaccess file

should i have this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ /vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

or

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ /forum/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

[anderow]

Im confused with the htaccess file

My vbseo for google and yahoo sitemap is in my forum folder "as it should"

but in the htaccess file

should i have this



or

it should be in your forum root.

So if you have your main site directory is


/var/www/html/yoursite.com

but your forum is actually located at

/var/www/html/yoursite.com/forum/


Then you need to add it to the htaccess in this directory

/var/www/html/yoursite.com/forum/

and use this code

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ /vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

hth :)

[joe1989]

I noticed what I think might be a bug...

I first installed an older version of this mod, and I just updated to the newest release (2.5) and I noticed a problem. For some reason, if I run the CRON item manually from the scheduled tasks area, the report it generates is just wrong. The links are all broken, it comes up with about 500 links too many (random user profiles, threads, posts, and forums, that don't even exist). I have mine set to run once a day at 4AM, and the auto run works fine, so I don't know why this would be happening...

Any thoughts?

[iojam]

Hello,

if you need to run it manually, you should do that via vbseo_sitemap/ interface (not in vB admincp->scheduled tasks).

[joe1989]

OK, thanks. But, is there a reason that it works when the scheduled task is executed automatically, and the problem only occurs when it is executed manually?

[iojam]

Yes, when you run it manually it's executed witho your (admin) privileges.

[Ludin]

Thank you. Installed on OTNation.com and love it.

[JohorBahru]

hi,

my sitemap_index.xml.gz link is broken and gone without any reason. What should i do now? reinstall the mod again? thank you

[joe1989]

All of the sudden the Yahoo Notify stopped working on my board. When I view the reports list, it says yes under Google notify, but No under Yahoo notify. The only change I have made recently that might have some effect on it (but shouldn't, I don't think) is I set up my Google Webmaster account and submitted the sitemap there, on Google. But, that should have nothing to do with Yahoo notify, right? Any ideas?

[iojam]

JohorBahru,

make sure that you have only one scheduled task in vB admincp and regenerate sitemap.


joe1989,

Yahoo sitemap submission service has issues recently, so I'd recommend to manually submit it to https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/mysites

[joe1989]

OK, thanks for the tip. One more question - I'm not sure if you'll be able to answer, because it's probably more a question for Google staff.

I have a Google webmaster's account, and for some reason, it shows my sitemap as containing over 2,000 URL's (which is accurate) but there are less than 800 'indexed' URL's. Why is this? Does Google just take a while to index the others, or will they never be indexed? How does it decide which pages in the sitemap are indexed, and why are they not all indexed?

I know, a lot of questions, and like I said, I don't know if you're going to have answers for me.

[Captain Tycoon]

Thanks! Installed and working perfectly.

But one question :D I'm confused on how I would go by submitting my sitemap to yahoo... :(

[iojam]

You can submit it here: https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/mysites

[joe1989]

iojam, any idea on my question from post 789?

[iojam]

It takes time for Google to index your pages.

[terminator2k2]

are all 2.5 versions the same? i plan to update from vb3.7.x to 3.8.x so it doesn't matter which 2.5 version i take?

[iojam]

Yes, that's the same one.

[joe1989]

It takes time for Google to index your pages.

How long? It hasn't even indexed half of my URL's and I submitted for the first time almost a month ago. Any thoughts?

[TeknoSounds]

Greetings,

Just trying out this mod for the first time. using vBulletin 3.7.3. I believe I followed the instructions to the T. However, when generating a sitemap, it'll generate ~3-5 .xml.gz files and then errors out to a 500: Internal Server Error.

Is there a permission or setting I missed? Could my host be screwing up something?

[TeknoSounds]

looking at the error log I'm seeing:

(running from cron page)
Premature end of script headers: cronadmin.php, referer:

(running from sitemap)
Premature end of script headers: vbseo_sitemap.php, referer:

[TeknoSounds]

nevermind, I located the problem being a limitation on the execution time for a script in the php.ini file.

[iojam]

Glad you got it resolved.

[Kihon Kata]

How long does it take to run the sitemap generator? I tried running it and it just sits there for like 10 mins+. Never ends. I closed the window.

Help?

[mobd3box]

thanks :)

[iojam]

Kihon Kata,

it depends on how many URLs do you have on your forums. Did you get any sitemap files created in vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder?

[joe1989]

How come in Google the number of "Indexed URLs" keeps declining, even though the number of URL's in my sitemap grows every day? Aren't the 'indexed URLs' supposed to be increasing?!

[Adam H]

How come in Google the number of "Indexed URLs" keeps declining, even though the number of URL's in my sitemap grows every day? Aren't the 'indexed URLs' supposed to be increasing?!

because a sitemap is only a guide to show google that the pages are there , google will only index pages its thinks are relevant or that have backlinks to that page, you need to look at your on site seo and internal linking to help your site get more indexed pages imo

[JohorBahru]

for the google webmaster tools(sitemap submission), i should submit
mydomain/sitemap_index.xml.gz

or
mydomain/sitemap_1.xml.gz &
mydomain/sitemap_2.xml.gz

instead?

thank you:)

[iojam]

Just sitemap_index.xml.gz.

[JohorBahru]

my sitemap is showing "
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
"

is this normal?

and no showing with IE

thank you :)

[iojam]

Yes, that's normal - sitemaps don't need a stylesheet.

[veyissen]

I manually run the sitemap generator from the vbseo_sitemap panel and it says

[SECTION START] tags [8,993.9Kb mem used] [206,838s (+24,781s)]

and waiting so nothing happens.

what should I do?

[vitrag24]

I've installed vbseo since a long.
I've uploaded all the files and imported product and added password as mentioned in instructions.

I've submitted sitemaps to google now and status is pending ..Now what to do?anything else i need to do?
how to submit to other se like yahoo,live search or it'll be automatically submitted?

[bunkum]

help please?

when i run sitemap generator it appears to work, and indeed it shows up beautifully in the sitemap generator history.

but when i click on the google sitemap index url it says:


This page contains the following errors:

error on line 1 at column 1: Document is empty
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

and an empty page....?

my site is very small still still, we've only been going a few days, but i know it's not totally empty!

[iojam]

What is your sitemap URL?


I've submitted sitemaps to google now and status is pending ..Now what to do?anything else i need to do?

[bunkum]

thanks very much. i got an answer too via vbseo and it seems it's a compatability error with chrome. just fyi in case anyone else experiences the same thing.

thanks for the yahoo link.

[carrlos]

I kept getting the 404 error and did not get any help and gave up on this product for the last couple of months. I decided to try again yesterday and through lots of reading and trial and error, I got it worked out. If anyone else is getting the 404 error, try adding this to the .htaccess in the forum root:
RewriteBase /forum
Obviously you'll need to change forum to reflect your forum root.

I'm not sure why I didn't get any support but I'm glad I got it figured out.

[AustinKalb]

My forum is part of a larger website. Can (or will) the sitemap generator create a map for the entire site or just the forum (in the forum subdirectory)?

If its just for the forum, is there a solution for the entire site?

Thanks
Austin Kalb

[kNeeLy]

do u need a vbseo program to run this hack.?

sorry for the dumb question.,..im not very good on seo..

[iojam]

No, this is a separate mod and can be used without vBSEO (although it's recommended to have both installed).

[imported_silkroad]

I know, a lot of questions, and like I said, I don't know if you're going to have answers for me.

The number of indexed links v. the number of links in the sitemap will not converse (for large boards) when the update frequencies are set incorrectly, see this post:

Google Sitemap Update Frequency and Sitemap Stats (http://www.thecepblog.com/2009/02/03/google-sitemap-update-frequency-and-sitemap-stats/)

Hi

Is there anyway to break up the url lists into different files? For some reason Google isn't accepting them all in 1 file.

Thanks

[TheInsaneManiac]

How do I remove all entries from the logs. I have over 400 pages worth and it seems to strain the server.

[iojam]

danh111,

you should submit sitemap.xml to Google, not urllist.txt

TheInsaneManiac,

you can manually remove all files from vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder.

I just fixed my problem. I didn't have the VBSEO plugin installed correctly so now it's working fine. :)

[Zylantex]

Thanks, looks very good. Installed

[Host Directory]

This may seem like a silly question but during installation you have to set the data folder to CMOD 777.

Are we supposed to leave this at CMOD 777 or change it back to 755?

[iojam]

It should be left set to 0777.

[oxblood12]

thanks testing

[wahhsabee]

installed!

[mitbar]

what is the sitemap url to view reports?

[vitrag24]

update for vb 4.0?
Thx.

[rigodiaz]

I had that same problem and deleted the stuff in the /data subdirectory (after being instructed to) then ran it again and it ran fine.
Thank you.

[kall]

update for vb 4.0?
Thx.
The 4.0 compatible version is currently in pre-release status, but can be downloaded by any vBSEO customer at the vBSEO.com Downloads section.

[kNeeLy]

I installed this and it is working perfect, except the reports show that "Moreover" FAILED.

Is that something I did wrong or is it the website "moreover"?

Other than that everything works perfect.

[iojam]

Hello,

moreover has stopped their ping service, it will be removed in the next version of vBSEO sitemap generator.

Cannot delete download records. Have not tried to delete a sitemap yet... I am running a dedicated. Any ideas?

[admolot]

Is there a way to make it work without .htaccess?

[linkknight]

Okay, I have 2 weird issues and some really dumb questions so please bare with me.

1) Whenever I generate a sitemap all happens properly except in the end I get a Database error :S. Like the sitemap has been generated but I am still getting this error.

2) Are we supposed to put the .htaccess file in mysite/forum/.htaccess or mysite/.htaccess? Also, what if i have it in both?

[intensecool]

[netproint]

Hi, I just bought the VBSEO package and I wonder why sitemap generator is not clubbed with the package ... I have the latest vBulletin (version 4.2) and don't know if it is going to work with it.

Can anyone confirm if it is going to work with VB 4.2 please? Would appreciate your help.

Regards.

[Vindicare]

I kept getting the 404 error and did not get any help and gave up on this product for the last couple of months. I decided to try again yesterday and through lots of reading and trial and error, I got it worked out. If anyone else is getting the 404 error, try adding this to the .htaccess in the forum root:
RewriteBase /forum
Obviously you'll need to change forum to reflect your forum root.

I'm not sure why I didn't get any support but I'm glad I got it figured out.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
That fixed it for me. Was about to uninstall this mod since it appeared to be worthless without the ability to access the sitemap file...

[dknelson]

This is installed and I assume correctly but not sure yet. I have not uploaded the htaccess file yet because I'm not sure where to put it.
