Symptom

  • An onpage analysis fails with the following error:
    Error start URL

  • the site uses Shopware

  • If the page is accessed with the user agent XoviOnpageCrawler, a 403 status code is returned from the server:
    ​~]$ curl -I -A "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; XoviOnpageCrawler; +http://www.xovi.de/)" https://www.example.tld
    ​HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

Cause

In conjunction with plugins, Shopware can prevent the XOVIOnpageCrawler user agent from accessing the page.

Solution

Make sure that requests from the XoviOnpageCrawler user agent are answered like those from a normal browser.
