Fetch as Google 'Unreachable' error


I just pushed a new version of my site to the server. It seems to be working fine, but I'm getting Google crawl errors and when I try to fetch as Google, I get an unreachable error.

Here's the Google bots latest attempt in the access log:

"GET / HTTP/1.1" 500 4753 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)"

Why is it looking for "-"?

The site uses the Laravel framework and is hosted on a Ubuntu 14.04 LAMP server at DigitalOcean.


Solution

  • Usually laravel logs contains most of the error of your app. You can check laravel logs in storage/logs, not apache one for errors.
