Question

Answer 1

I faced with the same problem. However i set everything as it was said in the tutorial but forgot to restart cmd. So the steps were:

1. Download and install Go distribution(the GOROOT variable was set automatically)
2. Create new folder wherever you like for your workspace, create there 3 directories: bin, src and pkg
3. Then go to Control Panel -> All Control Panel Items -> System -> Advansed System Settings -> tab Advanced -> Environment Variables -> add new system variable by clicking New on System varaibles -> Variable name = GOPATH, Variable value = Your:\directory\that\you\created
4. When you're done, RESTART your cmd or Bash(that's important) and you have your GOPATH set. To be sure run go env and you will see your value.
