Go Extension does not work

[tristanjclarke]

Description

When using any of the commands for the go extension the error command 'go.gopath' not found becomes present.

This same thing happens for every go command and reduces usability of the go extension.

Have tried Go: Install/Update Tools and command 'go.tools.install' not found is reported.

Is there any update on this bug?

Another broken extension due to the scraper. See #1299

Fixed! The Go extension requires Go is in your path otherwise the extension will fail to install.

Sorry for the necro, however I'm getting this exact issue using Go 1.14.1 on linux/amd64
Was trying to get the intellisense / autocomplete working and was getting the above errors.

For me not only go but even html and simple vanilla javascript is not working even extensions are failing to work like html formatter.

Also in response to @kylecarbs my path is as follows:
/usr/local/go/bin:/home/rudi/go/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

@Rudi9719 I think there is an issue with your path. I don't think your GOPATH is present in the PATH you've just pasted above. Also, consider changing your GOBIN to GOPATH/bin. Looks like they currently point to different home folders.

@Abhid14 Can you open a new issue regarding what errors you're getting?
