Hey guys,
I just noticed this (attached photo) on my Google Webmaster Tools site. Looks like those red X's and the yellow explanation mark is a problem. I guess there must be a problem with my xmlsitemap.php but I don't know how to fix it, or what it's saying for that matter. I know how to FTP to my site, but some help would realllly be helpful!

Thanks!

If I were you, I would disable vb's internal sitemap, and use VBSEO sitemap...its free.

as far as your error, not sure, not a coder...

Well, I installed VBSEO sitemap, but I'm not 100% how to use it. I can figure it out i'm sure, but as far as disabling Vb's sitemap, how do I do that?

log into admincp-

options-

look for-

xml sitemap

disable

I am sure you will not have a good outcome trying to run two sitemaps,
so one of them should be disabled for sure...

I use vbseo so my vbseo sitemap appears in my vbseo menu, so if you do not use
vbseo, I am not sure how vbseo sitemap will appear in your admin cp, but find out
where it appears then run your vbseo sitemap making sure it runs properly.

If you have problems then you will need to contact vbseo, I am not sure what
type of support they provide for their free mods.

its kind of tricky to get it setup , but hey that's what this is all about . the vbseo sitemap does work and it includes a lot more files than vb's does

So I don't have to disable the VB sitemap? How come on my Webmastertools the status for my xmlsitemap.php is "X".. doesn't sound good to me!

Also, I do not see any "disable" under options.

This is what my screen looks like
