A question about prepositions
Will it be okay to use this preposition after happen, exist, and occur in this context?
I have found a defect with a hyperlink and same defect persists with another link too.
For instance,
“The link “ABC” is not working.”
If the same defect persists with another link too, then will the use of 'with' be correct?
1. The same issue exists with the link "XYZ."
2. Same happens/occurs with the link "XYZ."
I know it can simply be constructed like:
Same defect is with the link “XYZ.”
I think both versions are correct, just need a clarification.
Thanks,
Harry

(1) is OK. ) If "The link 'ABC' is not working" means that nothing happens when you click the link, then this wording may not follow on very well. "Same defect is with the link 'XYZ'" is not correct.

(1) is OK.
(2) should properly be "The same happens/occurs with the link 'XYZ'." (In casual English the article may sometimes be dropped.) If "The link 'ABC' is not working" means that nothing happens when you click the link, then this wording may not follow on very well.
"Same defect is with the link 'XYZ'" is not correct.
