    Settings are same as before, I moved from Shared hosting to VPS, and nothing changed other than my SQL database password.

    The Downloads Log is working, its only the SE Bots Activity log that has those errors.

    Additionally, vbseo_sitemap/data/hits/ folder should be set to 0777.

    did you chown the hits folder as i directed to above?
    if not, you can also rename it to 'hitsold' or something and a new hits folder will be created by your new server with its chown permissions on it automatically.

    That did it, I changed the hits folder to 777 and its now working,

    Brian I wasnt sure what Chown meant above, ( I asked,) but no worries since those are working now.

    The only thing still remaining is when I click on "VBSeo site map settings" in the VB ACP I still see a blank blue screen.

    Just one other question, I have 953 logs, can I delete some of those?

    Many thanks for the help

    chown is the owner of the file/folder. it's permissions just like chmod, BUT it grants owner ship to your server to be ALLOWED to chmod, delete, write, read, etc in the first place. If the new server has a different name (and it mostly likely does) the old owner rights are still on the file, thus your new server gets a permission denied error trying to read/write to it.

    Yes, you can delete log files, but note that those logs will no longer appear in your stats.

    For the left nav link error, there is a fix for that else where... let me see if i can search that up.
