    Make sure you aren't crossing your subdomains.

    if you submit:
    Code:
    http://www.forum.patoghu.com/sitemap_2.xml.gz
    all your urls in it should be
    Code:
    http://www.forum.patoghu.com/
    prefixed.

    They are not. they are
    Code:
    http://forum.patoghu.com/
    prefixed. (missing www's)

    To google, this is a separate subdomain. Chose www or non-www, and make sure everything is the same thing for everything.

    You have FAR more results without the www's in google.

    Set your forum to only be accesible via non-www on the subdomain with htaccess (301 www to non-www) and make sure your vb options for BBURL are set without it as well. Then delete all xml.gz files in the /data/ folder and re-generate.

    And then, make sure you submit the sitemap properly to google without the www's as well.

    We've had about 10 other people today say their webmaster area is showing network timeouts. We think google is experiencing a glitch at the moment.

    if you've fixed the above, just monitor it for a few days and keep an eye here on the forums to see what others are seeing too.

    Yeah today google shows me suddenly the red X for my sitemap
    I did not do any chances to my site or the sitemap settings lately

    I did re-generate and re-submit it , but still showing the red x

    I am also thinking google might be working on something

    Hello Ian ,

    Please check if your sitemap correctly loads in your browser. If it loads correct , then the problem is within Google.

    My personal map has been off and on the past few days. sometimes i look, and its good. other times i look and its not (and he hasn't been re-submmited or re-run since).

    With the literally millions of websites they hold and have to check, its expected to have some problems sometimes. I looked on mattcutts site and the googleblog but i didn't find any notice about an issue.
