Root Cause

The project is configured to use vendoring (via -mod=vendor or GOFLAGS), but the vendor directory doesn't exist.

中文

项目配置为使用 vendoring（通过 -mod=vendor 或 GOFLAGS），但 vendor 目录不存在。

Workarounds

  1. 95% success 
    go mod vendor
  2. 80% success 
    go build -mod=mod

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 100% fail

    Go expects specific files like modules.txt; empty dirs won't satisfy the build.

  2. 50% fail

    You may not control the build environment; the flag may be set in CI.
