I tried to submit your sitemap url to google and it still gives an error immediately, saying the url cannot be found.
Have you tried deleting your htaccess file from the server? (make sure you have a backup first).
I think at this stage I have ran out of idea's.

Hello I have some great news at last I remember adding the google adsence code to in my preverences in the footer box so that the adds would be seen on many pages etc. I dont know why but I decided to delete the code just to see if that may have been the problem? and yes something by me adding the code there was blocking google? anyway my site at last has been submited and fingers crossed those lovely little bots may ariive was again?
I`ll post back with any joy
Cheers all

Nope after the pending status I got another error saying

HTTP 500 error

The server returned an error when we tried to access the URL provided. Please verify that the Sitemap URL is correct and resubmit your Sitemap.

Will this ever end Sad

Hi I am still at it lol, I have found something right at the very bottom of my htaccess file and its got to be the problem and at some point some how my file must of got accessed and change by someone this is what it read at the very bottom

deny from 66.249.64.0/19

I have checked my other sub domain sites htaccess file which I copied from this one and that was definately not on it so I must of been hacked, I think now my permissions are wrong at the moment they are 777 so I imagine they should be something else?

Cheers

well if im not mistaken 66.249.64.0/19 is google

Posted: Tue Oct 04, 2005 3:28 am

oh yeah...set your htaccess to 666

My thoughts are now how could of someone added this deny? is it possible if the file was set to 777 permissions someone could do this?
Cheers

You might want to add that IP to Sentinels 'Protected Range' to stop it banning google again Wink
