Getting Help
1

Hello, I am new to golang. I installed go using a proxy connection in my university. when i try to use ‘go get’ command it shows an error saying that Failed to connect to proxy server: Timed out. but the problem is I am using my home network. why is it looking for proxy details. can anyone explain this. I appreciate any kind of help.

Here are some links that may help:

What operating system are you running? What are your network settings? Environment variables?

I am working on windows 8 64bit. I have set gopath variable to my work space and other required variables for golang. i am using a network connection with no proxy.I rechecked my LAN settings to see whether i have forgot to disable the proxy server which i used in university and it was disabled. I am following up a tutorial and want to get that repository to my work space.

Error :
fatal: unable to access ‘https://github.com/GoesToEleven/GolangTraining/’: Failed to connect to cache.ac.lk port 3120: Timed out
package github.com/GoesToEleven/GolangTraining: exit status 128

this error shows the proxy setting for my university network connection. I cant figure out why it needs this.

I found the solution for my problem. It was not about Go. I have set git proxy globally. so whenever I try to use go get command it looks for the proxy that i have set for git (if pulling from git repos).

git config --global --unset http.proxy

solved the issue.
