Hi,

I have read the details on GoPath and also the previous issues reported. I am not able to fix the issue.

I am using

VS Code 1.39.2
Ubuntu 14.6

I have tried to remove the .vscode extensions folder as mentioned in #1514 but no luck.

Here is the image of this issue:

What version of Go, VS Code & VS Code Go extension are you using?

  • Run go version to get version of Go
    go: Command not found.

  • Run code -v or code-insiders -v to get version of VS Code or VS Code Insiders
    1.39.2
    6ab598523be7a800d7f3eb4d92d7ab9a66069390
    x64

  • Check your installed extensions to get the version of the VS Code Go extension
    Go 0.14.0

  • Run go env GOOS GOARCH to get the operating system and processor architecture details
    go: command not found

@nageshcaparthy Please follow the Go installation guide in https://golang.org/doc/install
Eventually this extension also suggests and manages the go installation, but we are not there yet.

@hyangah that did not work... I get command not found...

@ramya-rao-a Any suggestions on this?? it will be really helpful.

@nageshcaparthy: Did you get any errors from the Go installation? What directory did you extract the archive to? You will need to add that directory to your PATH (https://golang.org/doc/install#tarball).

This extension will not be useful without a Go installation, so configuring your installation correctly will be the fix.

I guess Path was the issue. Thank you for your support.

Might need the documentation to be adding the PATH or maybe I missed it.
