I am also getting this error. It only hapopens when using the rewrite, if i access it directly via vbseo_sitemap/data/sitemap1.xml.gz, it works fine.

Any update on this error?

Any issues since this stuff is open to anyone?

Example: http://www.vbseo.com/vbseo_sitemap/

Well, as it turns out, folks at vbseo are also having problems with the URL rewrite and the sitemap_1.xml.gz

It probably means google can't get the sitemap either?

Not sure. I added a direct link to the sitemap_1.xml.gz into my Google Sitemap account. Waiting for it to pick it up now.

is it possible to also set the priority and the frequency for those extra pages in extra-urls.txt ?

You won't be able to because google requires that the sitemap file be in the root directory of the url you are adding.

Ie.

www.yoursite.com/forums/sitemap.xml.gz

not

www.yoursite.com/forums/blah/blah/sitemap.xml.gz

It accepted it, and verified it just fine....

Edit: And it shows that it was downloaded and status is OK. :up:

Nevermind, they added a password to theirs now. And I found where to add it to mine. :D

Yeah, in the admin CP.

@stormblast, MrNase:

We are investigating the apparently PHP5 incompatibility you noted.

@kall:

Thank-you for catching the error in the install instructions. It has been updated.

@michaelbenson:

Once we correct the initial bugs that have been reported here, we recommend that you update to our sitemap. We are better equipped to provide user support and upgrades on a full time basis.

@Macindy:

You can include show posts. If you are getting a memory error, try reducing your 'Max URLs in Sitemap Files' setting from its default of 50,000 to 20,000.

@Aftermath:

Thank-you for the support. :rolleyes:

@nitro:

No - this is not vBSEO Lite. This is our Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator. It is compatible with non-vBSEO enabled forums as well as those running vBSEO 2.2.0 Full and vBSEO Lite (once released).

@mentalrz, Disi, dastar, Cedric_FP:

We are looking into the problem with the sitemap URLs.

@TheComputerGuy:

No - this is visible source code.

@ConqSoft:

We will look into the problem you noted with threads included for non-guest access forums, as well as the 'Redirect To Home Page' vBSEO config option.

@quachvu:

What version of PHP are you running?

@msimonds:

As MrNase noted, the value should be set to 0.

@msimonds,ConqSoft:

We submit the sitemap files to Google automatically upon generation if you have the 'Auto-Notify Google' set to 'Yes'.

@ConqSoft:

Yes - make sure you set your 'Direct Script Run Code' to a character string to use as a password when accessing your sitemap reports. We uploaded the latest version and had not yet set our run code.
