XML sitemap not generating

Permalink
under system & maintenance under the job 'generate sitemap file' I repeatedly get the following message -

The file /home/flyfishi/public_html/sitemap.xml is not writable

My domain iswww.www.flyfishinginnewzealand.com... and I am newbie to technical stuff so thank you to whoever can take the time to help with this question which probably appears dumb to those who know...
thank you

That sounds like a permissions problem.
Use your FTP programme to log on to your server and find your sitemap.xml and change the permission for the file to 777.
If that is all double dutch PM me and we can talk through it.
