Google Sitemap Doesn't Work Returns 404 Error

[itisza]

I have browsed the various topics and solutions on the problems with the native google sitemap generator and have not as yet found any solutions for the problem i am experiencing.

 

When I Go to the Google Sitemap module and select generate sitemap it reverts to a 404 page not found after approximately 15 seconds, it does this with or without the option to include pictures. I have around 4000 products.

 

Please can anyone provide a workable solution or should i rather go the route of using a third party sitemap generator?

 

I thank you in advance.

Probably timeout. Increase PHP timeout at your server. 4000 products take several minutes, I think.

It has been increased to 128 from 30 M still same issue

It does the same thing when i try to regenerate images

 

Please please please can anyone help

128 M is memory, not timeout. Try to play with bigger timeout as well as memory. I would try 1200 s and 512 M.

if your sitemap generation process does not work, please try this:

 

close cache at performance page

than try the sitemap generator again.
