Hi,

Recently we upgraded from OC 1.5 to v2.3.0.2

I have enabled the google sitemap in extensions->feeds and the data feed url is shown as
http://www.ourdomain.co.uk/index.php?ro ... le_sitemap

Last bit is index.php?route=extension/feed/google_sitemap

I have tried to add this new sitemap into Google webmaster tools but it reports an HTTP error 500: Network unreachable

Bit stumped, do I need to change a file permission somewhere or add or remove a line in our .htaccess file so google can see/accesss the sitemap?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the contents of our .htaccess file in the root of our webspace:

# 1.To use URL Alias you need to be running apache with mod_rewrite enabled.



# 2. In your opencart directory rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess.



# For any support issues please visit: http://www.opencart.com



Options +FollowSymlinks



# Prevent Directoy listing

Options -Indexes



# Prevent Direct Access to files

<FilesMatch "(?i)((\.tpl|\.ini|\.log|(?<!robots)\.txt))">

Require all denied

## For apache 2.2 and older, replace "Require all denied" with these two lines :

# Order deny,allow

# Deny from all

</FilesMatch>



# SEO URL Settings

RewriteEngine On

# If your opencart installation does not run on the main web folder make sure you folder it does run in ie. / becomes /shop/



RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ index.php?route=extension/feed/google_sitemap [L]

RewriteRule ^googlebase.xml$ index.php?route=extension/feed/google_base [L]

RewriteRule ^system/download/(.*) index.php?route=error/not_found [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.(ico|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|css)

RewriteRule ^([^?]*) index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]



RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^ourdomain.co.uk

RewriteRule (.*) http://www.ourdomain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]





### Additional Settings that may need to be enabled for some servers

### Uncomment the commands by removing the # sign in front of it.

### If you get an "Internal Server Error 500" after enabling any of the following settings, restore the # as this means your host doesn't allow that.



# 1. If your cart only allows you to add one item at a time, it is possible register_globals is on. This may work to disable it:

# php_flag register_globals off



# 2. If your cart has magic quotes enabled, This may work to disable it:

# php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off



# 3. Set max upload file size. Most hosts will limit this and not allow it to be overridden but you can try

# php_value upload_max_filesize 999M



# 4. set max post size. uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields

# php_value post_max_size 999M



# 5. set max time script can take. uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields

# php_value max_execution_time 200



# 6. set max time for input to be recieved. Uncomment this line if you have a lot of product options or are getting errors where forms are not saving all fields

# php_value max_input_time 200



# 7. disable open_basedir limitations

# php_admin_value open_basedir none

actual url to sitemap is http://yoursite/sitemap.xml

That is what you have to tell google to look for.
The original url showing in admin is actually rewriten by .htaccess file

Hi. The default Google sitemap automatically ping google to add the links from the sitemap or once google search spider crawl the site it will index from sitemap all the links. You would need to make sure you upload the sitemap in the .xml format, which is the one readable by Google. You can try the xml-sitemaps tool to generate it in .xml and upload it to your site
