[module] Google sitemap.xml Generator

I hope, that's it.
I could find online the access log on my server.

[Mon Mar 13 21:50:50 2006] [error] [client 84.177.198.80] Premature end of script headers: /kunden/113868_63697/webseiten/pages/google-sitemap.php

[viulian]

Thanks

It appears to be an error - the module has outputed a message (probably an error) before sending the headers to the browser.
I will post here a version of the module having debugging enabled, and if you would like, please send me back the logs (I will explain where to get them).

Probably there's something particular about your setup which I was not aware when coding the module, and I need to find out what is so I can update the code to properly handle this situation.

Well, I've been thinking - I have the debug code update.

Please replace the view.php file from modules/gsitemap/view.php with the one I have attached to this post (you need to unzip first).
Once you run the module, it should create a file called logsitemap.txt in the directory to which the WB_PATH points (that is in the /wb directory, if you have the default install).

Also make sure that you give the module the rights to write to that file (I mean create the file by hand and give it the permissions 777 before running the module - the same way you do for sitemap.xml ones).

Then attach the logfile to a post here, and I will investigate it. I haven't added a long debug, just here and there at the key points to see what might go wrong. If the file is not populated, then something is wrong with the module files you have uploaded. (view.php includes info.php for example; is that file in place - I mean in modules/gsitemap/info.php ?)

Anyway, things should start to clear up after this test and I might have to give you a version more verbose than the attached one, but please first tell me how things are going with this.

Thanks!

[SaschaN]

Opened log file.

That is all the file shows ...
I reinstalled the sitemap-module and that same things happen.

[viulian]

Below is a sample code found in the beginning of the view.php I attached.

Code:

$log = fopen(WB_PATH . "/" . "logsitemap.txt", "w");
fwrite($log, "Opened log file.\n");

include('info.php');

fwrite($log, "info.php - included.\n");

As you can see, it fails to pass the include('info.php'); line. Can you please double check if you have the info.php along with the view.php file (I mean in the same directory ?). If so.. something must have gone wrong with the info.php file itself or with the include part.

No, the info.php is ok. I load die gsitemap.zip file from the websitebaker forum page and installed it new. Same problem.

[viulian]

Hi!

Sorry for the delayed response - I needed time to think more about this.

Can you please use the view.php embedded in the zip I've attached, and tell me what are the contents of logsitemap.txt file ?

Thanks!

  Finally, some light.

The array is the stat for the info.php file...

What intrigues me is:

Code:

[size] => 83

because the size should be 1856 bytes..

Can you please investigate the issue ?

Thanks

Look here, the file has the right size:

[viulian]

Well  I cannot figure out then. On one hand php tells us that the file is small, there is this consistency that is php reports something strange along with the module that does not work, but apparently everything should work..

I am coding now a view.php file which will try to read the contents of info.php and put it all in the log file, to see at least what php finds when looking for info.php. Now I don't know how php is searching for the include files - maybe there's another info.php in the include path and it tries to include that before including the one in the module directory...
Can you please search the file system for an info.php file that is small (83 bytes) ?

Meanwhile I will code the logging part I was telling about...

[SaschaN]

There is no info.php with this size ...

[viulian]

I've attached a new view.php file.

Can you please run this one too ? It should put the contents of the info.php in the log file.

Thanks

[SaschaN]

HI!
It works!

There was an info.php in the pages directory.
When I deleted the file and use the "normal" view.php, it works very well.

If you need help with a CSS-Design, please contact me.
I hope, I can help you .
Thanks a lot .

[viulian]

 

Finally! I am glad everything's ok it was getting frustrating.

Good luck on your projects I will remember your offer when I'll need help.

Thank you,
Iulian

[SaschaN]

I don't know why there was an info.php in this directory .
Sorry for that .

Sorry for my english ..
why this error?

Well, that's a warning - is harmless.

It is due to the fact that I use:

$fp = fsockopen( $host, 80, &$errno, &$errstr, 120);

and pass the arguments of $errno and $errstr as refferences which was an OK way of passing arguments but is deprecated in newer versions of PHP. I will update this glitch in the next release, you can ignore it so far (is just the warning, the call is made anyway).

[1accessori.it]

Ok, thank you for this module and for the information.

[Amosnet]

Dear Moduleauthor, please write in the install notes, that user maybe have to create a empty sitemap.xml selfe with 777 so that that module work.  Create this file in your root directory!

Thanks for your help buddy

That extension does not work.

It spit out that cryptic dingdong i do not understand, what php want to say me...

And i never want that the programm contacts google. I am currently build my webseite, and it is not good, when a human googlesitececker see a webseite without any content.

The sitemap.xml is not in the directry... i cant find it with my ftp programm.


OK I have solved the problem...  by reading page 2 of that subforum.

Dear Moduleauthor, please write in the install notes, that user maybe have to create a empty sitemap.xml selfe with 777 so that that module work.

hi,
i'm getting the following error on executing my google-sitemap.php:

Code:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /walberberg.de/www2/modules/gsitemap/view.php on line 125

[toxication]

Hey all,

I have several sites and several URLs running on 1 server, all based on wb 2.5.2
on all the sites the gsitemap module works great, except for 1 where the script somehow, since a short while dies with an error on line 119 in view.php:

Code:

Call to a member function on a non-object in line wb/modules/gsitemap/view.php 119

The structure does of this site doesn't differ from the others.

Any suggestions here would be great, cause I really do not see where this error can come from and I see a drop in my pageviews since this error.

thanks!
