Bernhard,

To stop exception, you can modify $CHECK in Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding 
by removing “FB_CROAK”, that way it won’t throw exception, and let the code go 
through, however it will not decode content correctly, but in this case, since 
it is a spider, i don’t know if it matters to you.

you can just add this to your catalyst application:

use Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding;
$Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding::CHECK = Encode::LEAVE_SRC;

more isolated test that is illustrating this issue:

use strict;
use warnings;

use Encode qw(decode encode);

our $CHECK = Encode::FB_CROAK | Encode::LEAVE_SRC;

my $str = '深入 so what';
my $oct = encode("euc-cn", $str);

my $obj = Encode::find_encoding('UTF-8');
my $res = $obj->decode($oct, $CHECK);
warn $res;
