gb installation fail.

[chainhead]

I am trying to install gb on Ubuntu-16.04,64-bit. The installation fails with error message as too many errors. What am I missing?

Sorry, something is wrong with your go install. Either you have set GOROOT or you have copied several go installations over one another.

Well, I have only go installation; built from source. And, this is what I have from go env. Any ideas?

Can you build any Go programs ? My suspicion is no, so this is not related to gb.

[davecheney]

Hang on, you said you build from source, but the location of GOROOT is reported as /usr/local/go, which is the default location when you use the binary version from the website. Please check your $PATH, you definitely have more than one go installation on your system.

Correction: I downloaded a binary from here and then set the GOROOT to /usr/local/go after I unpacked the .tar.gz. And, I don't see a go version in $PATH .

Let me try this on a fresh VM and see how it goes. Please close this thread for now.

[davecheney]

Double check you downloaded the right version, IE amd64, not i386, and that you removed /usr/local/go before unpacking.

Ok. I nuked the /usr/local/go folder and unpacked the .tar.gz file. Then, I ran the command go get github.com/constabulary/gb/... to install gb. No errors this time!

When I run gb from command line, I get a message as "program not currently installed." Apparently, it is not a system-wide installation; it gets installed under GOPATH.

I have been instructed to run gb vendor restore. It results in a FATAL error message as 'unknown command "vendor"'. There is a gb-vendor command too; but, running it returns a error message as 'it is meant to be run as gb vendor ...'.

So, how am I supposed to run the restore to install dependencies followed by a build?

PS: Should I open a new question for this?

[davecheney]

Is $GOPATH/bin in your $PATH?
