Error Code 612 with robots.txt 200
-
Hi! I am getting this message Error Code 612: Error response for robots.txt, so the crawler do not check any page of the site. The status code for the robots.txt is 200 and it does not seem Googlebot has any problem crawling the site, so I don't know what the matter is.
The site is http://www.musicopolix.com/
Thanks so much in advance for any help!

Perfect.. sounds like "It is also possible you are blocking bots from accessing the page with the host or via htaccess.." was in the right direction!
Cheers,

Hi! Thanks for your answer! We found the problem with the help of Moz support team. Roger was being blocked by our server (http status code 403) but now it is solved and Roger can crawl our site without any problem.

I can confirm there is an issue here -- For example: https://webmaster.yandex.com/robots.xml allows you to test robots.txt on your site, and is currently stating it cannot load the file.
Have you checked the server logs to look for any errors/timeouts when crawlers are trying to load the file?
It is also possible you are blocking bots from accessing the page with the host or via htaccess..

612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt
Hi all,
Link Explorer | | ME5OTU
I ran a crawl on my site https://www.drbillsukala.com.au and received the following error "612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt." Before anyone mentions it, yes, I have been through all the other threads but they did not help me resolve this issue. I am able to view my robots.txt file in a browser https://www.drbillsukala.com.au/robots.txt.
The permissions are set to 644 on the robots.txt file so it should be accessible
My Google Search Console does not show any issues with my robots.txt file
I am running my site through StackPath CDN but I'm not inclined to think that's the culprit One thing I did find odd is that even though I put in my website with https protocol (I double checked), on the Moz spreadsheet it listed my site with http protocol. I'd welcome any feedback you might have. Thanks in advance for your help.

Open Site Explorer: Error receiving data
Hi, When searching many URLs in Open Site Explorer, we seem to be getting the same "There was an error getting your data" message come up instead of the URL's metrics and inbound links. We have tried on different browsers as well, and the same issue results. Is there a reason for this or a way to fix this? Thank you! voPdqF5.png?1

How do I fix 885 Duplicate Page Content Errors appearing in my Moz Report due to categories?
Hi There, I want to set up my Moz report to send directly to a client however there are currently 885 duplicate page content errors displaying on the report. These are mostly caused by an item listed in multiple 'categories' and each category is a new pages/URL. I guess my questions are: 1. Does Google see these as duplicate page content? Or does it understand the categories are there for navigation purposes. 2. How do I clear these off my Moz report so that the client doesn't panic that there are some major issues on the site Thanks for your advice.

804 error preventing website being crawled
Hi For both subdomains https://us.sagepub.com and https://uk.sagepub.com crawling is being prevented by a 804 error. I can't see any reason why this should be so as all content is served through https. Thanks

Really slow to load results on Open Explorer and "error fetching your data" messages
Hi, I am new to Moz and I'm finding using Open Explorer a real pain and frustrating, not only is it really slow, but for the past couple of days I've been getting "error fetching your data" messages when trying to show links etc. Is this just generally what its like or is there another problem?

Moz crawler showing pages blocked by robots.txt
I've blocked a large number of pages which Moz were showing as duplicate or giving 404's in our robots.txt using /?key and /?p etc. However Moz crawler is still showing as being an issue. I assumed Roger picked up the robots.txt file, or is that not the case?
