what is your search string? I do not get the line that Google has no hits.

Hi Peter,

I noticed that Google provides hits nevertheless. But the first line does tell that there are no hits with the specified string.

Okay, I had a short debug session with Dave and Humbedooh.

We are now sure that the crawlers are not blocked. The 301 Response
comes from the fact that Yandex still defaults to http and not https.

More detailed examination today shows that
Google search in French seems to drop out six days ago, in Italian five days ago, and in English about 23rd April - try a search for openoffice and the site specifier

See the above URL for details.

Rory


After I added https toi the URL all worked fine.

Wave did also do a curl request which also worked fine.


We have agreed now that I play the ball back to google, with the
feedback that this looks like a Google internal issue.

The Robot.txt has not been changed for 11 years. Yandex can crawl the
URL and we can curl the Webpage. So we think it is an Google Issue.


I very much appreciated the quick session. Thanks.

It’s not an IP Ban. Infra tells me that would not be a 301.

Ah-ha - here is the 301:

% curl -D headers http://forum.openoffice.org/
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>301 Moved Permanently</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Moved Permanently</h1>
<p>The document has moved <a href="https://forum.openoffice.org/";>here</a>.</p>
</body></html>

Surprising that they cannot shift from HTTP to HTTPS via a 301!

This has been the robots.txt file since: Last-Modified: Sat, 06 Jun 2009 23:40:14 GMT

Forum search uses phpBB

We haven’t allowed search engines to crawl forum.openoffice.org since before the Oracle donation to the ASF.

Crawlers IP addresses might be blocked by ASF Infra if their use is excessive. That could give the 301.

Hello all,


What I figured is that from the Google search tool the URL forum.openoffice.org is not reachable.

So I checked with Duckduckgo (my prefered Search engine), they don't use crawler and point at the infra of Google, Bing and Yandex.

I checked then with Bing, but could not figure out to check bots feedback on an URL so I moved on

I checked with Yandex. They have a search URL test page. I have entered there forum.openoffice.org

The Response is:

Server response time     133 ms
IP address     54.84.201.130
Encoding     UTF-8(unicode-1-1-utf-8, UTF8)

I am not sure, what that means. HTTP Status Code moved Permanently reads wrong. I just dont know if this is the return code from our webservcer or a response code from the crawler.
I try to get someone from Infra. Or I'll open a ticket.


All the best

Hi Peter...

Since I am a Google Search admin for www.openoffice.org, and
openoffice.apache.org, I got this also. Disclaimer: I have not done ANY work with the Google Search apis on these sites in quite some time.

I actually was NOT aware forum.openoffice.org was set up to use Google
Search until I saw this.
I think, I added it to the list when we had a discussion about outdated
information regarding SourceForge found by Google Search.

But I don't have access to forum.openoffice.org, so I could never
complete the step.

OK. In the top level of the website source, there is a file called
"skeleton.html" which references the following bit of code --

<!--#include virtual="/scripts/google-analytics.js" -->

I didn't dig far enough to find how "skeleton.html" is used ( I
forgot) but this this is example for the google-analytics code snippet that is used. Basically, this needs to be included in the site you want analytics to be used on by putting it in the (header) files that generate the site. And, you might  take a look at recent instructions
from Google. Things change.

https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1008080
Yes, but this is for Google Analytics. I wouldn't want to "analyze" the
forum...
The procedure for the Google Search Console is the same, it needs access
to the root directory.

Maybe Andrea can help if he is available again?

One of the Google Search admins for forum.openoffice.org could check the current Google search apis that are in use on that site. Changes are occasionally made to the calls, and maybe that is the issue, or a robots.txt for that site is causing this. I don't think it requires a
response, but maybe some investigation.

Just some ideas...

Kay

I have received following mail. Probably because I am listed in the

Does this has some action items? What can we answer Mr John Mueller?

Betreff:     Critical issue on forum.openoffice.org and Google Search
Datum:     Mon, 11 May 2020 13:37:27 +0200

An:     morsei...@gmail.com, kay.sch...@gmail.com, legi...@gmail.com



Dear webmaster of forum.openoffice.org <http://forum.openoffice.org>

I'm an analyst at Google in Switzerland. We wanted to bring your attention to a critical issue with your website, and how it's
available for Google's web search.

In particular, Googlebot has been unable to crawl URLs from
https://forum.openoffice.org/ . This will cause those pages to drop out of Google's search results, and will prevent new pages from being picked up for Search. If you're not aware of this issue, you may be accidentally blocking these pages from Google Search due to a server issue. If you need to block Googlebot from crawling pages on your
website, we'd recommend using the robots.txt file instead.

Should you need to recognize IP addresses of Googlebot requests, you
can use a reverse IP lookup to do so:
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/80553

Should you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly. For verification purposes, we are sending a copy of this message to your
site's Search Console account.

Thank you,
John Mueller (joh...@google.com <mailto:joh...@google.com>)
Webmaster Trends Analyst
