无法（退出状态为66）无法在基于Windows的Docker容器中下载Golang软件包

Question

Forgive me if this is a duplicate as I have not encountered a similar issue on stackoverflow before. Kindly provide the link if you have one.

The issue:

I have downloaded several Windows Golang images from docker hub and I have tried installing (go get) packages from inside the container. This fails with the following error (happens for all the various images I have tried).

I have even tried using a pure windowsservercore image, where I installed Golang and Git before running the go get command.

I’m not entirely sure what the issue could be but I believe status 66 has something to do with data race ? how do I fix this ?

Reproducing:

Step 1:

Docker pull golang:1.11.1-windowsservercore-1709  

Step 2:

Docker run -it --rm golang:1.11.1-windowsservercore-1709 powershell

Step 3:

PS C:\gopath> go get -d github.com/gorilla/mux

Answer 1

I managed to have a look at this, so it turns out that you do not have PowerShell available to you in this image.

Not all windows images come with Powershell only CMD, so change the Dockerfile to call the CMD like this:

enter code hereRUN ["CMD", "-c", "go get -d github.com/gorilla/mux"]
