Please read the article because it explains how to fix this error.

However, I’m 90% sure that the bots will not see the error and they will get the file without any problems.

In my case, my shared hosting already have “application/xml xml xsl” but still not working. (my stylesheet file extension is xsl)

The solution is to add xsl to the text/xsl mime type.
