Deploying to netlify build error

[wvictor14]

Hi, I am trying to migrate themes from academic to congo. I am using R / blogdown mainly to develop the site and content. So far I am able to get the site up and running locally, both through blogdown::build/serve but also through calling hugo server as described in the congo docs.

I am trying to set up production and deploy previews with netlify. But I keep encountering a build error despite trying different options in the configuration parameters.

I tried following exactly what is described in the congo docs on hosting on netlify exactly, but still encounter this build error.

The error seems to indicate that go is being called during the build process with the flag -modcacherw, I'm not familiar with go but a quick google search does not return any seemingly relevant information.

I see that in netlify logs that go version 1.12 is being installed, which from congo installation docs describe as meeting the minimum version requirement.

Installing Go version 1.12 (requested 1.12)
10:21:59 PM: go version go1.12 linux/amd64

 I am now at a loss of what to try next, any assistance here would be greatly appreciated!

Here are logs and other related information:

netlify build settings:

module.toml

[hugoVersion]
  extended = true
  min = "1.126.1"

[[imports]]
path = "github.com/jpanther/congo/v2"

netlify.toml

[build]
  command = "hugo mod get -u && hugo --gc --minify -b $URL"
  publish = "public"

[build.environment]
  HUGO_VERSION = "0.126.1"
  NODE_ENV = "production"
  TZ = "UTC"  # Set to preferred timezone

[context.production.environment]
  HUGO_ENV = "production"

github repo - deploy preview branch wvictor14/wvictor14.github.io#5

I figure it out! I just specified a more later updated version of GO in the build config netlify.toml

  HUGO_VERSION = "0.126.1"
  GO_VERSION = "1.22.3"

I suggest updating installation docs as seems like building the site requires a version of go >1.12:
