Even after ensuring proper read / write access to your GOPATH
folder you can still receive permission errors.
I tried sudo chmod -R sourcefolder/
and sudo chown -R username sourcefolder/
without any luck.

I needed to unset my GOBIN
variable in order to fix this issue. GOBIN
doesn't need to be set anymore by default. More details here: https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/InstallTroubleshooting
You can check whether it's set with echo $GOBIN
. You can unset it via unset GOBIN
. If it's set in your bash
file then it's different per operating system:
macOS: nano ~/.bash_profile
Linux: nano ~/.bash_aliases
Use CTRL+W
on either platform to search and type in GOBIN
.
