Paul Baglin Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Hi all, Having problems with Google crawling my site. Have downloaded the updated spiders.txt file and put that on the server, uploaded a robots.txt file to the root directory and google can access the following pages ok, www.mydomain.com www.mydomain.com/index.html www.mydomain.com/catalog/index.html but keeps returning a 500 internal server error when I put in a link to a product on my site, such as: www.mydomain.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/62 Any ideas? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germ Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Your links are all wrong. In your Admin, set 'Use Search-Engine Safe URLs (still in development)' to false. Save it. Sometimes you have to set 'Use Cache' to false to see any change. The link should be: www.mydomain.com/catalog/product_info.php&products_id=62 If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Paul Baglin Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Just tried all that and it's still coming up with a 500 internal server error. Google just doesn't seem to be able to access any cart page of my store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germ Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Well I did screw up the link. :- A normal link would be this instead: www.mydomain.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=62 If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Paul Baglin Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Lol, it was right anyway, it's just that it still doesn't seem to let Google in! The link looks like www.mydomain.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=62 As Google is accessing my 'normal' pages fine, there is obviously a problem with the scripts within OSCommerce somewhere along the line, I just don't know where, and Google are giving me conflicting information, when they can be bothered to reply.
