5XX (Server Error) on all urls
-
Hi
I created a couple of new campaigns a few days back and waited for the initial crawl to be completed. I have just checked and both are reporting 5XX (Server Error) on all the pages it tried to look at (one site I have 110 of these and the other it only crawled the homepage). This is very odd, I have checked both sites on my local pc, alternative pc and via my windows vps browser which is located in the US (I am in UK) and it all works fine.
Any idea what could be the cause of this failure to crawl? I have pasted a few examples from the report

500 : TimeoutError
http://everythingforthegirl.co.uk/index.php/accessories.html 500 1 0 500 : Error
http://everythingforthegirl.co.uk/index.php/accessories/bags.html 500 1 0 500 : Error
http://everythingforthegirl.co.uk/index.php/accessories/gloves.html 500 1 0 500 : Error
http://everythingforthegirl.co.uk/index.php/accessories/purses.html 500 1 0 500 : TimeoutError
http://everythingforthegirl.co.uk/index.php/accessories/sunglasses.html | 500 | 1 | 0 |
Am extra puzzled why the messages say time out. The server dedicated is 8 core with 32 gb of ram, the pages ping for me in about 1.2 seconds. What is the rogerbot crawler timeout?
Many thanks
Carl

You're absolutely correct, hopefully this answered your question!

Thanks, will check out that plugin. So, in other words, the pages are loading fine for the user but sending out an error to the bots instead of the loaded ok message. That doesn't sound good!!
On the plus side, at least it has stopped Roger noticing some of the pages have up to 600 links on them because of all the retailer and manufacturer filtering options!!
Many thanks, Carl

Hi Carl,
You're a lucky man (sarcastic), your paging are loading just normally but are indeed giving the wrong status code: 500 for me. This is probably caused by some of the settings in Magento or you server as the normal status code for working pages should be a 200 OK.
That's probably also why Rogerbot didn't timeout on the pages but got a 500 while the pages were working. Good luck fixxing this!
Btw, I highly recommend using the Redirect Plugin for Chrome by Ayima.

Unsolved Blog archive pages in Craw Error Report
Hi there, I'm new to MOZ Pro and have a question. My scan shows Archive pages as having crawl issues, but this is because Yoast is set up to block robots on these pages. Should I be allowing search engines to crawl these pages, or am I fine to leave them as I have it set up already? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Rookie question re Moz Crawl errors after deleting a property from console.
Hi all, I stupidly removed the "http" url of my one website a few days back (it is one of three, the other two being the https), then re-added it around a day later and, while google console isn't reporting back any errors, Moz Crawl is going to town on this now for one critical "4xx" issues, canonicals and various other content issues that I addressed days previously...last Moz crawl performed an hour ago, url deleted and re-added two days ago. I have resubmitted a sitemap, will this smooth itself out or shall I go and make changes? Many thanks in advance.

Are there any free (or paid) tools available online that download Meta Tags for ALL URL's of a website?
Hi, I am looking to run an On-Site audit for a website and I'm wondering if there are any tools available online that take the existing Meta Tags on ALL pages of a website and downloads them to a .CSV or .XLS. Would need Meta Title and Meta Description for all pages at the very least. Any suggestions are appreciated - looking for Free or Paid options. Thanks.

Where does the crawler find the urls?
The SEO Moz crawler has found a number of 500 error pages, and 404s etc which is very useful 🙂 however some of the urls are weird/broken formats we don't recognise and nobody remembers ever using - not weird enough to imply hacking, but something broken in the CMS Is there anyway to find out where the crawler found these urls? I can patch up and redirect the end result as best I can but I would prefer to fix plug the leak thanks 🙂

Crawl reports urls with duplicate content but its not the case
Hi guys!
Moz Pro | | MakMour
Some hours ago I received my crawl report. I noticed several records with urls with duplicate content so I went to open those urls one by one.
Not one of those urls were really with duplicate content but I have a concern because website is about product showcase and many articles are just images with href behind them. Many of those articles are using the same images so maybe thats why the seomoz crawler duplicate content flag is raised. I wonder if Google has problem with that too. See for yourself how it looks like: http://by.vg/NJ97y
http://by.vg/BQypE Those two url's are flagged as duplicates...please mind the language(Greek) and try to focus on the urls and content. ps: my example is simplified just for the purpose of my question. <colgroup><col width="3436"></colgroup>
