    Sitemap errors but email says it was generated

    So each night I do get the email saying the sitemap was done but today I checked on it and it hasnt been working for 2 months.

    This is the error I get.

    Warning: fopen(/home/b20vtec/public_html/forums/vbseo_sitemap/data/downloads.dat) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/b20vtec/public_html/forums/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php on line 48

    I upgraded to version 2.1 with the hopes it would fix it but no luck. How do I fix this issue? My VBSEO version is 3.0.0

    Its very possible it stopped working after my server was reimaged if that helps.

    Hello,

    make sure that you have 0666 permissions for vbseo_sitemap/data/downloads.dat file.

    Ok, that folder wasnt 0666. I updated that. Now the Your google sitemap Index URL works but when I try to test and run sitemap generator it gives me errors like this.

    I did some searching on the forums and found this.

    make sure that you have permissions for vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder set to 0777 and all files inside that folder set to 0666.

    Everything looks correct there.

    Ok, so now I have upgraded both vbseo and the vbseo sitemap plugins. I am still stuck with the same issue. The only thing I do not understand is the .htaccess file. What should it look like. Mine looks like this right now.

    # -FrontPage-
    IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
    <Limit GET POST>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from all
    </Limit>
    <Limit PUT DELETE>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    </Limit>
    AuthName b20vtec.com
    AuthUserFile /home/b20vtec/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
    AuthGroupFile /home/b20vtec/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
    Options All

    Looks like a big mess to me. Can someone please help me resolve this issue.

    That should be set for vbseo_sitemap/data/downloads.dat *file*, not the folder. data/ folder must be 0777.

    I have installed everything new.

    My issue now is my sitemap link takes me back to my mainpage?

    This is really starting to make me angry.

    My new htaccess file looks like this.

    # -FrontPage-
    IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
    <Limit GET POST>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from all
    </Limit>
    <Limit PUT DELETE>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    </Limit>
    AuthName b20vtec.com
    AuthUserFile /home/b20vtec/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
    AuthGroupFile /home/b20vtec/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
    Options All

    Is this right?

    I checked those and they are correct.

    Is that your main forums .htaccess file? You should upload .htaccess that is included in vBSEO package.
