sherrylknight Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I am unable to set permissions on the sitemap.xml file. I have tried using FTP, Dreamweaver and Filezilla. I am unable to even access the file on the FTP. In Filezilla and Dreamweaver it says "command not understood" . If I look at the file through the control panel it has full access. I am at loss how to proceed. Please help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestaHeroes USA Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 If you create a new sitemap.xml with your google module (my assumption you are using this module) does it create an updated file? i.e. does the file date/time change? can you access any other files in your root directory that do not reside in a folder like index.php?

sherrylknight Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 The site map file is the one on initial install. I have tried re-installing but I get the same error on the new file. I can access all the folders in the root directory and was able to change the permissions on them with no problem. The sitemap is a file not a folder, I am not able to change permission on any files only folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestaHeroes USA Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 did you recreate your sitemap.xml using the module? And if so did it change the date? and without ftp access, it's difficult to trouble shoot. You can pm me with ftp if you need another eye. I can look at it in the morning. I'm on Bogota/Quito/Lima time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherrylknight Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 So I have to pay for a module to get the site running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestaHeroes USA Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 it's free and if you did the full Prestasho installation that loads a boat load of module, you should already have it as mentioned above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netmechanics Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Hi - I have Google sitemap 1.9 on 1.5.0.17 and when I try and generate a sitemap it goes to a white-screen-of-death. It does create a sitemap.xml in root but it is empty .. Any ideas? Many thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
