That worked perfectly and saved this amateur volunteer admin a lot of time.
Thanks so much.
You should have your own holiday.

It looks like you have a stray entry in your database
labeled as being in
namespace 1000... generateSitemap.php is picking it up because it dumps the
whole database, but since you don't have it defined in the custom
namespaces array, it doesn't show up in your general lists.
Try running maintenance/cleanupTitles.php to renormalize the
namespace/title pairs in your page table; that should fix up the stray
entry.

Hi everyone,
Our site uses w/maintenance/generateSitemap.php. An error from Google
Webmaster Tools revealed that generateSitemap is including a sitemap of a
namespace that doesn't exist.
Specifically, included in the Sitemap
Index<http://www.tmswiki.org/sitemap/sitemap-index-ptpn_wiki.xml>is a
sitemap corresponding to namespace 1000:
http://www.tmswiki.org/sitemap/sitemap-ptpn_wiki-NS_1000-0.xml.gz
However, we don't have a namespace 1000:
The text of the broken sitemap is simply:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset
xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
<url>
<loc>http://www.tmswiki.org/ppd/:Guidelines</loc>
<lastmod>2011-12-12T00:25:28Z</lastmod>
<priority>0.5</priority>
</url>
</urlset>
When Google tries to read
http://www.tmswiki.org/ppd/:Guidelines from
the
above sitemap, it 404s, something I try to avoid,
wanting to keep the
ship
running smoothly.
Any idea how I could figure out what is going on? I went back and checked
the date stamp on generateSitemap to confirm that I hadn't edited it in a
fit of stupidity (no). The string 1000 doesn't appear either in
generateSitemap.php or localsettings.php
Not sure where to go from here.
Any ideas?
Forest
