How Do I Troubleshoot 804 HTTPS Crawl Error?
-
In my Moz crawl report I get:
Crawl Error
Moz encountered an error on one or more pages on your site
Error Code 804: HTTPS (SSL) Error EncounteredThe Moz Help Section only says:
804 HTTPS (SSL) error
804 errors result from a site with misconfigured SSL software. If Moz's crawlers cannot correctly interpret an SSL response for a home page, the crawl ends immediately.
My site is publicly accessible on https -
And I'm not seeing any issues with my certificate.
Can anyone help me out? What steps can I take to troubleshoot this error? If SSL is misconfigured, how do I configure it properly?

I'm having this same issue on a SquareSpace site. With issues I've seen from SS in the past, like blocking SEMRush, I wouldn't be surprised if it's them instead of a Moz thing.
Has anyone else had issues with this & squarespace or is that just a bad idea? -
Is this still an issue for anyone else?
We keep getting it in our Moz account for our website https://www.collegeatlas.org. Unsure of how to troubleshoot it because I don't know what the issue is. It seems that Google or Yahoo have a problem getting us indexed.

Dirk,
Thank you! I reached out to Moz support directly.

Hi,
I did a test crawl of your site with Screaming Frog & didn't find anything special. Sampling a few pages of your site didn't reveal anything really specific regarding to the SSL certificate. I would try to contact Moz support directly (http://moz.com/about/contact). They should be able to give you some more info on the error you encounter.
Sorry that I can't offer more help
rgds,
Dirk

Crawl Issue Question
Hey guys, I have run the crawl on my WordPress site and Moz finds a "Critical crawl issue" for my site on a broken link (404 error): mydomain.com/**%25s **, I can't seem to be able to find such a link anyway and I have run the website through several other tools that scan for broken links and such and there is no such result.

This link doesn't exist on my site at all and I don't know where Moz got it from, I have made changes to my site and recrawled several times and the specific error persists. Does anyone have any ideas?0 -

How do I disallow crawl on a directory when it's a prefix to my site's URL?
I am trying to disallow our media repository (hosted elsewhere, but appears as a directory on our site) from being crawled by robots but it is not a subdirectory of the site, it's a prefix. So I need to disallow: mediabank.mywebsite.org Not: mysite.org/mediabank What would I need to put in my robots.txt and/or the other host's robots.txt to make this happen? Thanks!

Cannot Crawl ... 612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt.
I tried to crawl www.cartronix.com and I get this error: 612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt. I have a robots.txt file and it does not appear to be blocking anything www.cartronix.com/robots.txt Also, Search Console is showing "allowed" in the robots.txt test... I've crawled many of our other sites that are similarly set up without issue. What could the problem be?

WP 4.0 Update Causing Major Duplicate Content Errors?
According to my moz analytics, my site has went through the roof with duplicate content. There's a nice Mozzer named Abe looking into this with me, but I'm wondering if it could be due to the WP 4.0 update. Has anyone else experienced an uptick like this before? I've never had any problems with the other updates. Thanks, Ruben

Did the Crawl Test tool go away or was it replaced
I loved that tool as it provided me with all of my URLs and it was easy to catch all errors at once. I had it booked marked but now I am just going to the regular tools page.

Moz crawl sees meta description but there are none
I have a new site I have run a starter crawl on. The crawl came back saying some of the pages do indeed have meta descriptions. When I go to the same page and use the Moz Chrome toolbar it says they do not have meta descriptions. I also know they do not have meta descriptions. Are there any instances in which the Moz crawler would see them when they are not there?
