Resolving 'Cannot Find sitemap.xml' Issue
· One min read
I had registered the sitemap.xml for my blog to ensure it gets indexed by Google, but all I was getting was an error message saying 'sitemap not found'. Finally, I managed to resolve it, and I am sharing the method I used.
While this method may not solve every case, it seems worth a try.
Simply run the following command:
curl https://www.google.com/ping\?sitemap\={path to your submitted sitemap}
And then, when you check the search console again...!
Finally resolved after almost a month...😢
The sitemap is finally being recognized.
Hope this helps!
