@lgraubner : thank you for looking into this Issue (appreciated). The uptime on my computer (Arch Linux) was significant, ~40d or so (enough for a couple of linux kernel updates to have transpired).

Operating that long without rebooting eventually causes issues, so I rebooted this morning, and just now re-ran the sitemap generator. It appeared to run fine (now), despite the NODE_TLS... warning, generating a 24.6KiB sitemap.xml file.

tl/dr: appears to be working fine, now.

@templeman Thanks for your feedback.

@victoriastuart Actually I just generated a sitemap for your site without any problems. This seems to be a different problem. Can you try with a different path? Do you have proper permissions?

The warning will be fixed in the next release.
