go get github.com/tools/godep not working

Error Message:

package github.com/tools/godep
    imports github.com/kr/fs
    imports golang.org/x/tools/go/vcs: unrecognized import path "golang.org/x/tools/go/vcs"

I had this issue before, but it was because golang.org is blocked in China (Don't ask me why...don't even get me started...).

So try "go get golang.org/x/tools/go/vcs" first to check your connectivity to this repo.

I have the same issue. "go get golang.org/x/tools/go/vcs" fails with the same error. However, golang.org and the full "golang.org/x/tools/go/vcs" are accessible from the company network - opening the URL in a browser redirects to the godoc page for vcs.

Trying "git clone https://golang.org/x/tools/go/vcs" I get a 407 (Proxy authentication needed), which means I need to tweak my proxy setup in git.

Thanks. It is working fine for me now. It is because of proxy. golang.org was not there in allowed domains previously.

It's still working for me ,and I'm sure it's not proxy problem.

you can use go get github.com/golang/tools, it's a mirror from https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/tools, then mkdir -p src/golang.org/x/ and copy src/github.com/golang/tools to src/golang.org/x/.

It would work well behind GFW.

Or you can set up proxy

root@ed27c545f7af:~# cat ~/proxy.conf 
export http_proxy=http://172.17.42.1:8118
export https_proxy=$http_proxy
export ftp_proxy=$http_proxy
export rsync_proxy=$http_proxy
export no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1,localaddress,.localdomain.com"

Download/Install

The easiest way to install is to run go get -u golang.org/x/tools/....
You can also manually git clone the repository to $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/tools.
