[ERROR] Invalid URL

[narduin]

Describe the bug

Versions:

• astro@4.9.2
• astro-i18n@2.2.4
• node v18.20.3 & 20.13.1 tested

An error is happening as soon as I launch my astro project.

At first it was working insanely great, but at some point (and I don't know why) it started showing this error constantly.

TypeError
An error occurred.

Invalid URL
src/index.js:12:30050

I didn't event import astroI18n or a translation function into the page.

To Reproduce

1. Create an astro project (latest is 4.9.2)
2. Add astro-i18n and config
3. Add an index page with a
4. Sync i18n and launch dev server
5. try to navigate/reload pages

Expected behavior
Website should show pages.

Mandatory reproduction repository
Add a git repository to reproduce the bug.

Thanks a lot!

Got the same issue, on setup it worked and after i18n:sync it broke with that error and never worked again, with this bug this otherwise great lib is unusable. Tried downgrading both astro and astro-i18n versions but did not help. Did not matter if there was only one language or multiple.

@Alexandre-Fernandez Is it possible this will be fixed? I found out that it does work when you have created 404.astro page and have astro@4.15.8 at the most.

[filip-glowicki]

I have the same problem as @Haxikowy. I would be very grateful if you would give information on this matter :)

[ehrencrona]

This issue here seems to be that URL_PATTERN matches /favicon.ico, so set route(route: string) in astro-i18n.class will interpret that path as a URL and then try to parse it which causes this problem.

The workaround until this has been fixed in astro-i18n would be to simply add a favicon.ico to the public folder of your project.

The issue still exists...

[albertosgr]

on my side, it was Chrome dev tools request.
You can resolve it (workaround) by installing vite's plugin (https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/vite-plugin-devtools-json)
or handle in in your middleware before i18n.

in astro.config

import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import devtoolsJson from 'vite-plugin-devtools-json';

....

export default defineConfig({
  ...
  vite: {
     plugins: [
         devtoolsJson(),
     ],
  }
...
})

Currently not work.
