I'm trying to get a sitemap working in Typo3 9.5.x. If I go to https://domain.tld/?type=1533906435 I get the following page.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="/typo3/sysext/seo/Resources/Public/CSS/Sitemap.xsl"?>
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
<sitemap>
<loc>https://domain.tld/index.html?sitemap=pages&cHash=38eee382dd3fc2edb80b67944d477100</loc>
<lastmod>2019-10-07T13:57:04-07:00</lastmod>
</sitemap>
</sitemapindex>
So far so good. But the link in there should take me to the actual sitemap, but instead takes me straight to the root page without any redirection. This happens on 2 different sites. I didn't configure anything special, just enabled the seo system extension and included the static template as described here.
When I submitted the sitemap to Google's Search Console, it said "could not fetch", but the next day the status was "Success" and it discovered URLS. I guess Google crawled the root page and found the links on it.
How do I get the sitemap working or is there a bug somewhere?
