    Nope, but the only time bot logs have ever stopped were due to the older version of Sitemap being used.

    You did double-check the option in vBSEO to make sure you're telling it to log bots, didn't you?

    Check directory and file permissions settings on your data directory under vbseo_sitemap too. Anything significant about that last date (or the date after it)? Server moves? Server issues? Anything?

    bah, good guess.

    this is the same chown crap that i ran into on downloads.dat.

    < 257 "/public_html/vbseo_sitemap/data" is your current location
    ~ Using cached directory listing for /public_html/vbseo_sitemap/data/
    > SITE CHMOD 777 hits
    < 550 Could not change perms on hits: Bad file descriptor
