I just tried submitting the following XML: http://www.quebecguitare.ca/index.php?option=com_jmap&view=sitemap&format=xml


I get the following error:
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.
1
URL restricted by robots.txt

I excluding menu items that leads to the video section, but still I have the error.

I wanted to exclude the video section because it has bad SEF like I said in my other post, I wish to remove the fragments /video/player/ from the URL. But if you tell me that doesn't matter much for indexing, I unblock this section from the robot and start indexing it.

Regards
