My website is currently unable to submit or run the “Test Live” feature in Google Search Console.
It always shows an error saying: “Something went wrong, please try again later.”


When I go to:
Settings → Crawl stats,
I can see that Googlebot successfully crawled one URL on November 5th (let’s call it URL A).


However, when I check that same URL directly in the URL Inspection tool, it says:


“Last crawl: August 22”
Click to expand...

So, it hasn’t updated the latest content, even though I’ve already edited and republished the article a long time ago.


When I search on Google using site:a.com, it still shows the old version of the content, not the updated one.


What should I do to fix this situation?

That looks like a sync issue between the Crawl Stats API and the Indexing system. Googlebot may have fetched the page, but the new version hasn’t replaced the cached one in the index yet. I’d recommend forcing a fresh crawl by updating the sitemap and resubmitting it. Also double-check canonical tags, lastmod in your sitemap, and ensure no soft 404 or redirect is interfering.
 
This usually happens due to indexing delays or a temporary GSC glitch. Try requesting indexing via the API or re-upload your sitemap it often triggers Google to re-crawl and update the cache faster.

Sounds like a temporary GSC issue. Try clearing cache using another browser or resubmitting through your sitemap. It usually resolves itself in a few days.
 
Many people face this issue. It usually helps to check that the page isn’t blocked by robots.txt or a noindex tag, ensure the canonical is correct, and then use URL Inspection, Request Indexing in GSC. Sometimes the “Test Live” feature shows errors even if Google can crawl the page fine, so waiting a day or two after requesting indexing often resolves it
 
This is a frustrating technical conflict, but it points directly to an infrastructure issue on your server, not a content issue. When the Test Live URL continuously fails with a generic error, and the Crawl Stats show a recent hit that the URL Inspection Tool doesn't recognize, it often means the tool cannot successfully complete the resource-heavy live test.
 
Try Updating Images on your website and also and keep short url would be helpful for indexing
 
It’s likely a temporary Google bug. Ensure the page is indexable, check it loads correctly, keep internal links pointing to it, and wait a few days—Google should recrawl and update automatically.
