"We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap."

    I have created a sitemap, uploaded it to, and tried to submit it to google sitemaps; however I get this message:

    We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided and then resubmit.

    I can directly access the sitemap, and there are no errors...however I am getting this error message?

    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Ian,

    What's the URL of your Sitemap (are you allowed to post URLs here?)?

    I think all are allowed to post urls given 10+ posts and green rep.

    Are you still having trouble? It seems to be parsing OK for me.

    Yes, it was most odd. I tried yesterday again, and still had the same problem. Resubmitted again this morning, and checked about half an hour ago and it was fine. Very strange... :?
