I am really new to Go, and I can't figure out why make does not work:
C:\Go\src\github.com\elastic\packetbeat>make
Must run make.bat from Go src directory.
Running make from the c:\src gives this:
C:\Go\src>make github.com/elastic/packetbeat
Building Go bootstrap tool.
cmd/dist
ERROR: Cannot find C:\Users\admin\Go1.4\bin\go.exe
"Set GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP to a working Go tree >= Go 1.4."
And when I try and add the GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP variable my Go starts giving me compile not found errors and I have to reinstall Go to make it work again.
So I followed Tudor's advice and modified my GOPATH
My paths:
GOPATH=c:\go;c:\go\src\github.com\elastic\packetbeat
GOROOT=c:\go\
That gives me the following error (there is no header file for pcap.h on my system)
C:\Go\src\github.com\elastic\packetbeat>go build

compilation terminated.
The reason why I want to compile myself is that I will try and add support for at second windows driver "Microsoft Network Monitor 3 Driver" so I don't have to install the Riverbed driver, hope that it makes sense
