Subject: Can't add new sitemap after redesigning website
We moved our site to a new host and completely redesigned the entire
structure of the site.  I'm unable to add a new sitemap.  The error
"URL restricted by robots.txt" which is impossible because the new
robots.txt is correct.  I also removed it entirely but no luck.

Is it possible that the old robots.txt file is cached within Google
Webmaster and preventing my new sitemap to be added?

Gio

Hi Gio,
Can you give the URL of your site?

Cristina.

It's possible the server where you moved is serving a different
robots.txt file than what you think.

But it's also possible  the domain has not propagated yet, so maybe
the old server has a robots.txt which blocks robots.

When you moved did you keep the same domain name or is it different?
How long ago?
And what is the url now and what was it before if different?
