Issue with ena.embl identifier #163

Closed marcadella closed 3 years ago

marcadella commented 3 years ago

Clicking on the sample URL redirects to https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena//ena/browser/view/BN000065, which is a broken link. The reason is that the link should points to https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/view/BN000065 instead.

I dug dipper and had a look at the redirection chain:

It looks like identifiers.org is properly redirecting to the set up URL (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/BN000065) and then it is EBI who is wrongly redirecting.

So all that needs to be done is to update both ena.embl and bioproject to use the up to date URLs (i.e. replace data by browser).

Resolved.
