generateSitemap.php is used to (as the name implies) generate a sitemap for search engine robots such as googlebot. The default setting compresses the output, creating an index file(xml) and a zip file for every namespace that has content.
- Side note: When using generateSitemap.php you can add --help to get a list of options for its use.
- Tech note: generateSitemap.php uses gzdopen, which requires RPM libmysqlclient.so.15. If you do not have this RPM installed you might run into this error: php: relocation error: php: symbol gzdopen, version libmysqlclient_15 not defined in file libmysqlclient.so.15 with link time reference , to "skip" this error without installing the libmysqlclient RPM, you can use --compress=no. This will cause the output from the script to be non-compressed.
- For use see Manual:Maintenance_scripts
