Cannot do any go command anymore


Before it happened, what I am doing is trying to use the dep to manage my golang code dependency. What I found right now is I cannot do any command with go, even if I try to uninstall it with brew by brew uninstall go and do brew install go again.

If I am doing a go env it will show like this:

$ go env
go: cannot find GOROOT directory: /usr/local/cellar/go/1.13.1/libexec

$ ls /usr/local/Cellar/go/1.13.8/libexec/
CONTRIBUTING.md SECURITY.md bin     lib     robots.txt
CONTRIBUTORS    VERSION     doc     misc        src
PATENTS     api     favicon.ico pkg     test

$ go version
go: cannot find GOROOT directory: /usr/local/cellar/go/1.13.1/libexec

$ go build
go: cannot find GOROOT directory: /usr/local/cellar/go/1.13.1/libexec

$ echo $GOPATH
/Users/mymac/go

$ echo $GOROOT

$

What should I do and check?


Solution

  • Try this:

    https://gist.github.com/vsouza/77e6b20520d07652ed7d

    # Set variables in .bashrc file
    
    # don't forget to change your path correctly!
    export GOPATH=$HOME/golang
    export GOROOT=/usr/local/opt/go/libexec
    export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
    export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
    

    Of course, you'll need to change "$HOME/golang" and "/usr/local/opt/go: to your actual path names.


    From OP:

    finally i solve this, can you help to update your comment then i will set it as SOLVED.

    i use

    export GOROOT=/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.13.8/libexec/

    instead of

    GOROOT=/usr/local/opt/go/libexec
