Issue

Sitemaps generated by cron in Adobe Commerce contain the wrong image URL path.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. In the Commerce Admin, create a new website, store, or store view.
  2. Add at least one product to each store, and add at least one image to each product.
  3. Enable Sitemap Generation By Schedule in Admin > Stores > Configuration > CATALOG > XML Sitemap > Generation Settings.
  4. Generate a sitemap for any of the two stores manually in Admin > Marketing > Site Map using a sitemap name like “sitemap.xml”.
    • Rename the file to something like “manual_sitemap.xml” or copy the file content to any text editor.
  5. Generate the same sitemap by cron job sitemap_generate.
  6. Compare the manually generated sitemap “manual_sitemap.xml” and the sitemap generated by cron “sitemap.xml”.

Expected results:

The cached sitemap image path URL is correct.

Actual results:

The sitemap generated by cron contains the wrong image path URL. If you try to open the image from “sitemap.xml”, it will show a default placeholder. Manually generated sitemap URLs are unaffected by this issue.
