    500 error on robots.txt? not a 404.

    I can access robots.txt fine from my directory. I see it, it's not a 404. However when I access it via a script, I always get a 500 error. What would cause this?

    Do you have a trailing / at the end of the request?
    How are you accessing the robots.txt via script?

      submitting a sitemap to a certain you-know-who

      NEVER had this issue before with a site, doing it the same way as always. I have about 100 sites above it with no errors, but this one has an error. Says robots.txt couldn't be accessed due to a 500 internal script error.

      Odd... so odd.
