Missing sitemap.xml

Permalink 1 user found helpful
I am trying to generate a sitemap file. When I run the job in "Automated Jobs" I get a ////concrete/sitemap.xml is not writable. I go to the folder to check the permissions and found that there is no sitemap.xml file. How do I generate this file if it is missing?

Any help would be appreciated

Did you find out what the permissions were for your folder?
I dont think the sitemap.xml will be added until you have run the job the first time then it is created.

Hi Madeforspace.

The root folder where this file should be has permissions 755. When I tried to run the job it tells me that the file is not writable. But the problem is it does not exist?

Have you tried putting in a blank xml file called sitemap?
Just a guess on my part as it seems to work fine for me on my installs.

I changed the permissions and ran the job okay and then changed the permissions back again. Strange that I could not do the job as administrator. thanks for your help.
