Sitemap Index Shows "Success" but Child Sitemaps Show "Couldn't Fetch"

R

My sitemap index is showing "Success" in Google Search Console, but the child sitemaps display "Couldn't Fetch" or "Sitemap could not be read."

I have already checked that:

  • All sitemap URLs are accessible.

  • Every sitemap returns HTTP 200.

  • The XML is valid.

  • The robots.txt file is configured correctly.

  • There are no manual actions.

Even after verifying everything, Google Search Console still isn't reading the child sitemaps correctly.

Why does this happen, and what should I check to fix it?
