Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.I chekced my site as anonymous user and wen't to sitemap link then got "You are not authorized to access this page." ...
Only when I went to permissions and gave anonymous users the permission to View published sitemap, this problem went away.
I believe with all my heart this permission should be default. I saw this problem quite by chance...

mgifford@azdonald this applies well. I'm having trouble replicating the problem though. What are the steps to repliating this problem:

vs

I tried to see the /rss.xml file as an anonymous user to verify this problem.

Chris Matthews CreditAttribution: Chris Matthews commentedFor various reasons the Sitemap maintainers are probably not going to accept this patch. See #3 of the attached README.txt file, also copied below:
Installation:
------------
1. Place this module directory in your modules folder (this will usually be "modules/" for Drupal 8).
2. Go to Manage -> Extend to enable the module.
3. Check the Manage -> People -> Permissions page to enable use and administration of this module for different roles.
4. Make sure the menu item is enabled in Manage -> Structure -> Menus -> Tools. You may move it to another menu if you like.
5. Have a look at the different settings in Administer -> Configuration -> Sitemap
6. Visit http://example.com/sitemap.

akalata CreditAttribution: akalata commented#9 is correct. We should not change the established conventions of a project, particularly with regards to permissions, without a very strong reason.
