General HTTP error: 404 not found while submitting sitemap
Hello,

I generated the sitemap with the help of seo by yoast wordpress plugin and it opened the sitemap url (http://xyz.com/sitemap_index.xml) with the message:- This XML Sitemap Index file contains 6 sitemaps.:


http://xyz.com/post-sitemap.xml
http://xyz.com/page-sitemap.xml
http://xyz.com/category-sitemap.xml
http://xyz.com/coupon_category-sitemap.xml
http://xyz.com/coupon_tag-sitemap.xml
http://xyz.com/stores-sitemap.xml

After a while, i got this error message -
General HTTP error: 404 not foundSitemap:
xyz.com/coupon_tag-sitemap.xml

Why can't I find that page?

What should I do?
Your reply would be very much aprreciated!

    Add this to your .htaccess. It is a common problem. Yoast blames it on theme developers. I blame it on Yoast because I have had to do this for several different themes.
