Quick testing:¶

TYPO3 9.4.0-dev (master)¶

does not throw an error (the checked link isn't reported as broken.) I don't know if the page is reported as OK (There is no overview within linkvalidator about "good" links)

TYPO3 7.6 master¶

does report a broken link but doesn't "crash"

• TYPO3 8.7.latest (stable)

crashes like described in the initial ticket description

I can't reproduce the exception with current TYPO3 8 branch (8.7.20-dev).

I used the link http://www.chemmedchem.org/ (as suggested above)

The link is not broken, it gets redirected.

The link is not marked as broken and no exception gets thrown.

The error sounds familiar, and I believe we fixed it. Please check, if you can still reproduce.
