    Hello @techman,

    Thank you for contacting the support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    We would suggest checking with your hosting provider to properly configure the NGINX file for your website.

    Also, please follow the steps below and see if this improves the situation:

    Can you please follow these steps?

    1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:
      https://i.rankmath.com/xXXhDt
    2. Exclude the Sitemap files of the Rank Math plugin in your caching plugin. The cache could be via a plugin or from the server. For plugins or Cloudflare, please follow this article:

    That should fix the issue. Please let us know if that does not. We are here to assist.

    This is a VPS so I control everything and can write rewrite rules where required. I have already followed that Rank Math tutorial but no luck.

    Found the issue. And it was about not publishing any post or page i.e. there was not a single published post or page on my blog duh!

    I published a page and now site map is available.
