如何修复“go get:warning: modules disabled by GO111MODULE=auto in GOPATH/src”

Question

I'm trying to install golint with the command: go get -u golang.org/x/lint/golint. And I think I got two problems:

go get: warning: 
    modules disabled by GO111MODULE=auto in GOPATH/src;
    ignoring ../go.mod;
    see 'go help modules'

package golang.org/x/lint/golint: 
unrecognized import path "golang.org/x/lint/golint" (https fetch: Get https://golang.org/x/lint/golint?go-get=1: dial tcp 216.58.200.192:443: i/o timeout)

I then try to install golang/tools, also failed...

package golang.org/x/tools: unrecognized import path "golang.org/x/tools" (https fetch: Get https://golang.org/x/tools?go-get=1: dial tcp 216.58.200.192:443: i/o timeout)

Answer 1

I ran this command

export GO111MODULE="on" 

and that worked for me...

Answer 2

Also got this error when trying to work with vgo

Removing GOROOT (you don't need to explicitly set GOROOT , Modern versions of Go can figure it out on their own based on the location of the go binary that you run), updating my GOPATH and export GO111MODULE="on" resolved the issue.

GOPATH see in here

GOPATH may be set to a colon-separated list of paths inside which Go code, package objects, and executables may be found.

Set a GOPATH to use goinstall to build and install your own code and external libraries outside of the Go tree (and to avoid writing Makefiles).

Answer 3

It looks like you have a go.mod file inside $GOPATH/ (under $GOPATH/go.mod ). You should remove that. Also, since you are using Go 1.11 or newer, you can run the go get command from well outside of GOPATH/any directory containing a go.mod file either directly or in a parent directory, and then the command should work.
