Is anyone having trouble with the 'go install’ command? My kali linux running on virtualbox is able to install mosint but when I type:

cd Desktop

go install -v github.com/alpkeskin/mosint@latest

ls

It comes out blank, there is no mosint directory to cd

super beginner to all things programming, hacking, coding, pen-testing, and web scraping, so any help would be appreciated,

thanks!

@AxelPina and @gabrieljimeneztapia I'm also a beginner but what worked for me is to install go(programming language) first. Use: apt install golang but make sure you open with the root terminal(the red one)

@AxelPina I tried what you said, was able to install golang using the root terminal, but the exact same issue happened to me,
"mosint: command not found"

Hey, I found the answer in this link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32927645/go-install-not-working

In short: go installs mosint in its own bin directory, which (in my case) is in /home/[user]/go/bin. You can check your GOPATH with the go env command.

I created an alias in my .bashrc to launch mosint without having to reference it directly: alias mosint="~/go/bin/mosint".

Edit: As @Lord-Valen says, you can add your GOPATH (e.g. ~/go/bin) to PATH so you don't need to create aliases for every thing you install with go install.

Why alias it when you can add ~/go/bin to PATH?

Solution:

  1. Download golang -> https://go.dev/
  2. Set GOPATH -> (useful link) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21001387/how-do-i-set-the-gopath-environment-variable-on-ubuntu-what-file-must-i-edit
  3. Open terminal and write -> go install -v github.com/alpkeskin/mosint@latest

Thats all.
