Java exception when validating page with redirection

Hi, I've installed the CSS validator following this guide:

https://github.com/tlvince/w3c-css-validator-guide

Overall it works fine, but I'm getting a weird java exception when
validating this URL

http://elpais.com/internacional

I get this message:

####################
Target: http://elpais.com/internacional/
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: protocol = http host = null
####################

And this the error backtrace I see on catalina.out:

I don't see this error on the official validator at
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

It looks like it might be caused by the redirection to a different domain.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks!

Jaime
