When I do go mod tidy in the module cache, it’s giving this error.

xxx/xxx/fabric-mgmt-api/internal/app/network-mgmt/xxx/primitives/mock: no matching versions for query "latest"

I have placed the mock files at location that is having the package mock. Still, error is there.

Things I have tried.

1. Copy the repo outside GOMODCACHE. Then go mod tidy works. cp -a ~/go/pkg/mod/xxx/xxx/fabric-mgmt-api@v0.0.0-20230119053658-acd5a1e86128 ~/workspace/ cd ~/workspace/fabric-mgmt-api@v0.0.0-20230119053658-acd5a1e86128 && go mod tidy
2. Used go 1.18. This also works.
3. Tried on go 1.20.1. It doesn’t work.

Hi @Ishmeet, welcome to the forum!

Under normal circumstances, it should not be necessary to run Go commands inside the module cache. Can you explain what you are trying to achieve?
