Google Sitemap Crawling Error

    This is the first time I've encountered this problem. I checked my website in google's webmaster tools, and it has an error for every page/post on my website.

    Why does every URL have the domain name at the end? or the other errors?
    "Enter your forum URL here"
    "Paste the destination URL here"

    The theme has a built in option where it has a link to "Enter the forum Here" in the header, but I just put it as a blank space. However, I don't understand the other error where just adds on RyanMathews.net on the end.

    i.e. www.ryanmathews.net/fresno-state-vs-san-jose-state/RyanMathews.net

    Hmm, Well what I don't understand is why do all the pages have /ryanmathews.net at the end?

    I think I may have fixed the problem though, will see in a couple of days

    Also are my pages still getting indexed? and for some reason these other pages with the /ryanmathews.net at the end are just creating errors? As long as my other pages (i.e. http://www.ryanmathews.net/fresno-state-vs-utah-state/) get indexed I'm not worried, but are these errors affecting these 'original' pages?

    Hi,

    Under apache, when you request a directory on your browser like: http://www.something.com/somepath, it will search in httpd.conf for the file it will serve you by default:

    DirectoryIndex index.html index.shtml index.html.var index.htm index.php3 index.php index.pl index.cgi

    if any of those configured files is present in that specific directory, then you will have a 0404 error code in return (in your case with a server redirection).
    maybe yours is configured to serve ryanmathews.net?

    Anyway those errors won't affect others pages on your Sitemap containing no error.

    solve it in your hosting because google gets 404 error and the pages are not found

    Possibly bug in your website code, server settings... or sitemap generator you use?

    There's definitely something wrong with your website.
    Mostly caused by server settings, .htaccess and your website configurations

    I'm quite sure that there is nothing wrong with "sitemap generator".
