 * Hello i try to install Google xml sitemap plugin and says
 * > There was a problem writing your sitemap file. Make sure the file exists and
   > is writable. Learn more
 * You can make your whole blog root folder writable and the plugin will create 
   the files for you. You can do this by using a FTP program and setting CHMOD to
   755 or 777 to your web-root folder. This folder is often named “htdocs”, “html”,“
   public” or “httpdocs”.
 * The Problem is i can’t find those files
    htdocs”, “html” “public” or “httpdocs
 * by defult must be on my blog root?
 * Please give me some solution for that
    Thanks in advance

 * Instead of doing that, use a [plain text editor](http://codex.wordpress.org/Glossary#Text_editor)
   to create two empty files, one titled `sitemap.xml` and one titled `sitemap.xml.
   gz` . Then, use an [FTP client](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) to upload
   these files to the same directory as your `wp-config.php` file and [change their permissions](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions)
   to 666.
 * This method is more secure than making your entire blog directory writeable by
   everyone.
