Error creating a Metricset

[shweta_chugh]

I am trying to create a metricset using command
make create-metricset which gives me this error.

I have Golang 1.8 installed on my system.
Please help in resolving this.

Thanks

Can you try to run make prepare-tests and then again make create-metricset to see if this solves the error?

Just realised you are on Windows. Makefiles do not work that well on Windows Still it seems the error above comes from go tool cover which I would expect to exist.

What do you get if you run go tool cover? You should get a help output.

Yes, I get a help output.
Attached for your reference

Interesting. Did my first comment help?

What you can try otherwise, is running the Python command manually which is executed by the Makefile as I assume it is a Windows issue with the Makefile:

This is the command. You must replace the env variables with your actual values.

python ${ES_BEATS}/metricbeat/scripts/create_metricset.py --path=$(PWD) --es_beats=$(ES_BEATS) --module=$(MODULE) --metricset=$(METRICSET)
