@mingcha-dev

Description

@mingcha-dev

Problem

china-robot-industry-alliance.json uses http:// URLs which 301 redirect to https://. Additional reports of connection timeouts from some networks.

Current URLs:

  • website: http://cria.mei.net.cn/
  • data_url: http://cria.mei.net.cn/gzpt.asp?lm=/1310

Test Results (mixed)

Source http https Notes
Network A (mingcha) 301→https ✅ 200 (0.88s) Works fine
Network B (墨子) ❌ Timeout ❌ Timeout Connection refused

Action Items

  1. Multi-region connectivity test (different networks/IPs)
  2. If consistently reachable: update httphttps (simple fix)
  3. If intermittently down: investigate if site is migrating or shutting down, find alternative URL or mark as inactive

Context

Found during URL redirect chain analysis. Split from PR #83.
