 * I’ve got the “Google XML Sitemaps” plugin installed on my WordPress site. Every
   time I click on the “XML-Sitemap” settings link, I always get a “Error 500 – 
   Internal server error, please try again later”. So what on earth is going on 
   with that and how do I get “XML-Sitemap” to work?
 * WordPress: 2.7.1
    Google XML Sitemaps: 3.1.2

 * I am using wordpress 2.8 and I have come across a lot of errors. Right now …
 * 1) When I click on the “XML Sitemap” link, I get a 500 Internal Server Error.
 * FIX:
    My “All in One SEO Pack” plug-in was causing this error, so I deactivated
   it. For now, I am deactivating it and reactivating it. A pain in the ass, but
   for now it will do.
 * 2) When I click on the “rebuild the sitemap” link, I get a 500 Internal Server
   Error.
 * FIX:
    What I did is unchecked the “Write a gzipped file (your filename + .gz)”
   checkbox and saved the settings.
 * Then, clicking on the “rebuild the sitemap” worked.
 * Good luck. I hope to find a real fix on the internet.
