I have a problem with the sitemap in Google search console. In the index sitemap I see al posttypes with a link to the sitemap from that posttype.

I have a lot of product and Wordpress split the xml in different parts you can see above. If I send the index sitemap called https://www.example.com/sitemap.xml to Google Search Console I get an error.

2 of the product sitemaps https://www.example.com/wp-sitemap-posts-product-4.xml and https://www.example.com/wp-sitemap-posts-product-5.xml has an 404 error but If I browse to these hyperlinks the files are exist.

Does somebody know this issue?

You probably need to "flush" your permalinks.

Turn the sitemap feature off, (yaost?), change your permalinks to default and back, turn on the sitemap feature again.

I like using a separate plugin to handle this instead of using Yoast. I don't like their naming convention/structure, and this issue seems to happen a lot.
