Bogus ERR_ICANN_NAME_COLLISION error for *.srt |
||||
Issue descriptionVersion: 54, 55 OS: Windows 10 URLs of the form foo.srt, foo.bar.srt, etc. produce an ERR_ICANN_NAME_COLLISION error with a weird message: > This site can’t be reached > This site on the company, organization or school intranet has the same URL as an external website. > Try contacting your system administrator. > ERR_ICANN_NAME_COLLISION This is my home PC, so: 1. I'm not on an intranet 2. I'm not in a company, organization or school 3. I don't have a system administrator (I'm not trying to reach a particular URL, I actually just wanted to search for a file with the srt extension.)

Adding mmenke@ and davidben@ who will have a better insight. Would this happen if connected through an ISP?

SRT is now a top-level domain, so we assume you want to go to http://foo.srt/ when you type it in the omnibox. DNS lookups for srt domain names are returning 127.0.53.53, which is a magic IP used to indicate a possible name collision, to protect against people squatting on the .srt domain locally. So Chrome is working as expected - you get the same behavior (Navigation instead of search, not the ICANN error) if you try to search for files ending in ".com" as well, so I think this is a WontFix.

Thanks for the details mmenke. Marking as WontFix. @michaelpg, unfortunately you'll have to press down arrow to get the search results instead of the site. |
