问题出在

        resp, err := client.Do(req)
        defer resp.Body.Close()

很简单，client.Do失败了，err不为nil，此时resp.Body为nil，但是又要强制调用它的close函数，于是报错。

只讨论代码的话，应该这样改：

        resp, err := client.Do(req)
        if err != nil {
            resp.Body.Close()
        }

但是，根本原因是，你的服务端出问题了。

去看一下是没启动还是怎么了……

另外，有可能不是“运行一段时间后报错”，
有可能是刚开始就会出错，只不过还没等到client.Do(req)的超时，于是刚开始“看上去是正常的”。
