I have a problem on Google Search console reporting the sitemap of my site like this:
https://www.himaxcr.com/sitemap_index.xml == > Couldn’t fetch
Click on click on it, it shows: Sitemap could not be readI read all previous cases and I’m not able to determine the root cause.
Please test the site map here: https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/validate-xml-sitemap.html
1) I installed Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin, and just enable Rank Math.
– Still the same error happened.2) I’m using nginx and redis, so I added the string
# START Nginx Rewrites for Rank Math Sitemaps
rewrite ^/sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 last;
rewrite ^/([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 last;
# END Nginx Rewrites for Rank Math SitemapsJust in case…, same issue is reported
3) I’m not using any other caching plugin, just redis at the server level, so I disable redis completely and still the same error happened, even though I flush all the cache with: redis-cli flushall
4) Just in case I doubled check what I’m excluding from redis and the sitemap is excluded:
# Don’t cache uris containing the following segments
if ($request_uri ~* “\?add-to-cart=|/cart/|/my-account/|/checkout/|/shop/checkout/|/wp-json/|/store/checkout/|/customer-dashboard/|/addons/|/wp-admin/|/xmlrpc.php|wp-.*.php|/feed/|index.php|sitemap(_index)?.xml”) {
set $skip_cache 1;
}From a different server I can access the sitemap just fine and what’s really interesting is that it comes with the correct content type text/xml

Thank you,
Best Regards
