I'm getting the following Sitemaps error: The strange part, however, is how the crawler gets that link because they all have an "index.html" within the sitemap files (i.e. http://www.blabla.net/34/product1/index.html). As a result, the links that do get crawled are redirected to include the "index.html". Does anyone know what would be causing this problem of the crawler dropping the index.html from my sitemap links?
Thanks for the reply, lspence. I'm checking with the web devs on this one - I'll have an answer for you soon. Can you be more specific regarding what you mean when you say "anything fancy" with our .htaccess file? The issue might be more obvious than that, though I had originally thought we weren't using 302s at all, but apparently we are. I would have figured people knew better by now about using 302s vs 301s, but that goes to show that you can't assume people know everything you know. The webdevs are removing all 302s - I'll let you know if this fixes our sitemap errors regarding the drop of "/index.html" from our URLs.
