What did you do?

• Made a tiny Go package with 1 function.
• Built it into a framework using gomobile
• Imported the framework and called the package within Swift code.
• Debugged the app on on iPhone.

Here is an example project that produces the error:
https://github.com/curyous/gomobile-bug

What did you expect to see?

No problems logged on startup.

What did you see instead?

In debug log:

runtime/cgo: chdir(/private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/3CB0E6B1-721E-45F6-9C38-CA0EB8D971E6/GoMobile%20Bug.app) failed

This also happens with go1.14.5 on ios 14.1

It looks like the responsible piece of code can be found here:

go/src/runtime/cgo/gcc_darwin_arm64.c

Line 107 in 72dec90

if (chdir(dir) != 0) {

Deleting the spaces in "Product Name" in "Build Settings" worked for me

This fixed it for me too. For anyone seeing this, make your project name have no spaces. You can make the display app name that people actually see have spaces later.
