Hi All,

Hope everyone is very well,

I am new to operator-SDK stuff, I am not able to create a QuickStart project in operator-SDK.

I am getting an error:-

FATA[0001] failed to initialize project: unable to scaffold with "base.go.kubebuilder.io/v3": exit status 1

Thanks & Regard,

Kishan Kumar

Something seems wrong with your directory structure. Note the error message on the line right after the "go get" command is printed.

Can you make sure you have the correct version of Golang Installed for the operator-sdk version you are using? go 1.18-> 1.19 has some breaking changes.

Hi Everyone,

I am still getting an error on the operator.

I am using the operator version 1.10.1 and go version 1.16.6.

This is an operator error.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Kishan,

The error seems like you are unable to get the dependency required (see the msg when it tries to go get the controller-runtime mod. ). I would like to recommend you check out:

a) Are you using a proxy? (Also, please check your go env)
b) Are you in a LAN that is restrictive and does not allow you to download from internet things?
c) Do you have more than one go binary installed locally? If so, are you sure that you are using go version 1.16? Could you please ensure that your go env is pointed out for the version informed?
c) Would you be able to face the same issue with the latest version available and go 1.19? Could you please try it out? Have you any reason to still use go 1.16 and SDK version 1.10.x instead of v1.25.0 (latest release)? Would not be better to create a new project using the latest versions instead? Why create a new project with technical debts?

I hope that can help you out.

Cheers,

+1 to Camila. Chasing down dependency problems for a release over a year old doesn't sound like fun.

If you are required to use 1.10 (I'm curious why) be sure you are using the legacy docs. https://v1-10-x.sdk.operatorframework.io/

Hi Kishan

there is a white space in the path:
GOBIN=/mnt/e/Go lang/new-operator/memcached-operator/bin

The command is then interpreted as setting env var: GOBIN=/mnt/e/Go and running lang/new-operator/memcached-operator/bin, which as the error message states is a directory and not an exe.

Try to fix your path from "/mnt/e/Go lang" to "/mnt/e/Golang"

Regards,

Frédéric
