Here is my code.

package main

import (
“fmt”
“html/template”
“io”
“log”
“net/http”
“os”
“strings”

“GitHub - satori/go.uuid: UUID package for Go”
)

var tpl *template.Template

// Page struct which describe page structure
type Page struct {
Title string
Keywords string
Description string
Message string
}

func init() {
tpl = template.Must(template.ParseGlob(“templates/*.html”))
}

func homehandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
page := Page{Title: “Home Page”, Keywords: “This is home page keywords”, Description: “This is description of page”}
err := tpl.ExecuteTemplate(w, “index.html”, page)
checkWebError(w, err)
}

func uploadhandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {

if r.Method == “POST” {
r.ParseMultipartForm(32 << 20)
file, handle, err := r.FormFile(“image”)
checkError(err)

  // we will use this id for new unique name
  id, err := uuid.NewV4()

  // extension will come with . (dot) extension
  ext := strings.Index(handle.Filename, ".")

  newname := fmt.Sprintf("%s", id) + handle.Filename[ext:]

  defer file.Close()
  f, err := os.OpenFile("./images/"+newname, os.O_WRONLY|os.O_CREATE, 0777)
  checkError(err)

  defer f.Close()
  io.Copy(f, file)

}
page := Page{Title: “File Uploaded”, Keywords: “This is home page keywords”, Description: “This is description of page”, Message: “File Uploaded”}
err := tpl.ExecuteTemplate(w, “index.html”, page)
checkWebError(w, err)
}

func checkWebError(w http.ResponseWriter, error error) {
if error != nil {
log.Println(error)
w.WriteHeader(http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
}

func checkError(error error) {
if error != nil {
log.Println(error)
return
}
}

func main() {
http.HandleFunc(“/”, homehandler)
http.HandleFunc(“/upload”, uploadhandler)
http.ListenAndServe(“:8080”, nil)
}

Please help me and let me know how to solve this issue.
