404 errors on page urls that don't even exist
-

Looks like some kind of a glitch in the crawler.
-
The fact is that I don´t have the http://www.yoxo.it/catalog/seo_sitemap/category/ folder nor the http://www.yoxo.it/catalog/seo_sitemap folder.
When the seomoz engineers think about to fix it?

Hey Koure,
Thanks for reaching out. You're not going to see a bug in the crawler that creates pages like this. What you're seeing is a problem with how your server is configured in conjunction with the code on your page. As you can see in this curl:
There are a huge number of pages where you link to "/falli/" and it just keeps creating those pages. It seems eventually your server puts a limit on the URL length but before that 404 they are all 200.
Unfortunately I can't really offer any great advice on fixing these in particular as I don't do web support. You can likely pass this along to your web admin and they can source a resolution. Also maybe another user here can help point you in the right direction.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Joel. -
I have to abdmit that I am a newbie,
but I have one question,
if it is a server configuration problem,
why these links/folders are not seen by the google spider?

Unfortunately I can't speak for Google. Those pages all return 200 responses so they are valid. As I said, they are caused by the improperly formed link in conjunction with the server dynamically creating those pages.
Thanks,
Joel.
