Hi,

I'm trying to build metricbeat v7.12.0 and I'm getting this error:

    ~/beats/metricbeat    PLATFORMS=linux/amd64 make release                                                                    2 ↵  10463  17:57:51

Last version I tried to build was 7.7.0 and that was fine

My go version: go version go1.15.8 darwin/amd64
My mage:

    Mage Build Tool v1.11.0
    Build Date: <not set>
    Commit: <not set>
    built with: go1.15.8

fwiw I see github.com/tsg/go-daemon in my beats/vendor folder.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks

Hi!

Latest versions use go modules, so this is what you might be hitting. Please have a look into the contribution guide at Contributing to Beats | Beats Developer Guide [master] | Elastic

Hey @ChrsMark , thanks for replying! I tried make update, and then mage vendor. Not sure where I should be running mage vendor in - running it in beats and beats/metricbeat both gives me an error Unknown target specified: "vendor", running it in beats/vendor gives me No .go files marked with the mage build tag in this directory..

@kvch does this look familiar to you? Any ideas here?

Just run simply rm -rf vendor in the root of Beats.

Just to be clear are you building your own Metrcibeat metricset or building Metricbeat on v7.12.0 from the beats repo?

I removed the vendor folder and now PLATFORMS=linux/amd64 make release works fine. I think I ran go mod vendor at first because mage build prompted me to, but now I can't reproduce that prompt. Thank you both for your help!
