You will have to ftp or cpanel to your site and check first for sitemap then right click and see what permissions you have
you need
sitemap.xml and sitemap.xml.gz and make them writable via CHMOD 666
As per the installation help in the plugin
I have the same problem and all the research is saying I need to do as you have said. However, I am not a programmer and don’t even know what ftp is. Can you please give me ‘the idiots guide’ version of the above, or is this something that I will need to get a developer to help me with?
OK, got help from my host Fatcow, read all the help sections here and now accessed my files having downloaded FileZilla. I go into the directory and there is a root folder, with the index.php file, and I first changed it to 666 and that didn’t work so then 777 as per the instructions on the plugin help site. Still get the same error message when trying to build the sitemap?
I am having the same error message. I check and the sitemap file wasn’t generated. I’ve used version 3.2.5 on many sites without an issue. Is 3.2.7 compatible with WP 3.4.1?
I don’t see what is the next step to correct the issue.
Help?
Unless version 3.2.5 doesn’t submit to Ask.com I would expect you get an error on your 3.2.5. sites as well…
If you go into settings > XML-Sitemap, look for “If you encounter any problems with the build process you can use the debug function to get more information.” Try debugging this, it will spit out a long debug text message, and take a look to see if that tells you anything more, look for the word “error” anywhere, or you could try pasting it here, and I can try to help you out further.
Hopefully we can get you up and running with this plugin, it’s very handy.
It says:
MySQL Queries
Please edit wp-db.inc.php in wp-includes and set SAVEQUERIES to true if you want to see the queries.
I don’t have “wp-db.inc.php” in the includes folder. I have “wp-db.php”
I went into “wp-db.php” and changed false in this line of code to true.
// If there is an error then take note of it..
if ( $this->last_error = mysql_error( $this->dbh ) ) {
$this->print_error();
return false;
Then, I rebuilt, but it still returned the same error.
Hello Guys….
The solution is very easy
And simply
Place the following code in the file … wp-config.php
define('SAVEQUERIES', true);
Thats all …
Regards
