Appreciate the help Nick!
I used an online wget site to access my ads.txt file - as I read that’s how google access the file. The result came back fine.
I’m not seeing any errors in webmaster tools.
When I use the robots.txt file check in webmaster tools - it says media partners can access the file. (Not blocked)
The trouble might be - I’ve always forced
https://www.
For my users - I’ve done it with htaccess.
But on the new server to reduce hops, I’ve used cloudflare to get the user to
https://www
without all the redirects.
I don’t know if that is bothering google, maybe they access the file by
http://
I’m still seeing the error message in my Adsense account.
My site is crawled by Google daily - but I have read some sites where people say it’s taken a month for the message to go.
Many thanks.
