    With go version 1.22.6, the cache restored successfully. I’m not sure if this is related to the Go version. Thanks

    I got a similar problem and I also see that even if the cache is marked as found by the action many packages are still downloaded :( I'm not sure the cache is working properly by default

    It seems we are having the same issue. The only way to make builds pass is to delete the cache manually and restart the job.

    Hi @linglingye001, We've upgraded go and golangci-lint to the latest versions (Go: 1.23, golangci-lint: v1.60.3) and Successfully executed the workflow without encountering any errors. Here's a screenshot for your reference. To help us further investigate the issue, Could you please attach link to the build or public repository to reproduce the issue ?

    I'm also facing this issue with Go 1.23.
    And my errors also point to go/pkg/mod/golang.org/x/telemetry/config
    image
    (by the way, is it the new telemetry feature introduced since go 1.23?)

    Then, I tried cache: false and use @actions/cache directly:

        - uses: actions/setup-go@v5
      with:
        go-version: '1.23.0'
        cache: false

    - name: Get Go ENVs
      id: go_envs
      shell: bash
      run: |
        echo "GOMODCACHE=$(go env GOMODCACHE)" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"
        echo "GOCACHE=$(go env GOCACHE)" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"

    - uses: actions/cache@v4
      with:
        key: v1-go-${{ runner.os }}-${{ hashFiles('**/go.sum') }}
        restore-keys: |
          v1-go-${{ runner.os }}-
        path: |
          ${{ steps.go_envs.outputs.GOMODCACHE }}
          ${{ steps.go_envs.outputs.GOCACHE }}

    It failed similarly:
    image

    Then I tried cleaning modcache before calling (restoring) @actions/cache:

        - uses: actions/setup-go@v5
      with:
        go-version: '1.23.0'
        cache: false

    - name: Get Go ENVs
      id: go_envs
      shell: bash
      run: |
        echo "GOMODCACHE=$(go env GOMODCACHE)" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"
        echo "GOCACHE=$(go env GOCACHE)" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"

    - shell: bash
      run: |
        go clean -modcache

    - uses: actions/cache@v4
      with:
        key: v1-go-${{ runner.os }}-${{ hashFiles('**/go.sum') }}
        restore-keys: |
          v1-go-${{ runner.os }}-
        path: |
          ${{ steps.go_envs.outputs.GOMODCACHE }}
          ${{ steps.go_envs.outputs.GOCACHE }}

    It also failed:
    image

    Then I tried using rm -rf instead of go clean and, interestingly, it threw permission denied:
    image

    I could sudo rm -rf instead, but then it still failed when restoring cache:
    image

    sudo chmod -R 0777 also failed:
    image

    However, cleaning both -modcache and -cache somehow worked:
    image

    which is weird to me because the error is pointing to GOMODCACHE (go/pkg/mod).

    Edit: I ran my workflow another time and this time it failed 😿 (even when cleaning both -modcache and -cache):
    image

    p/s I would like to note that this issue happens when restoring cache, while @gowridurgad ran a workflow that had no cache yet.

    Hi @muzimuzhi, @datbth, The issue you're facing during cache restoration is due to the telemetry update in Go 1.23.0.
    This update includes files (config.json, go.mod, LICENSE, doc.go) that already exist in the golang.org/x/telemetry directory, causing conflicts. When restoring the cache, these existing files prevent the tar command from completing successfully, resulting in "File exists" errors.

    We have observed that the error related to extracting telemetry files is not present in Go version 1.23.1. Attached a screenshot for your reference This suggests that the issue might have been resolved in the newer release.
    We recommend updating your workflow to use Go version 1.23.1 as follows:

    - name: Set up Go
  uses: actions/setup-go@v5
  with:
    go-version: 1.23.1

    If you continue to experience issues, please let us know.

    I just tried a few workflows with 1.23.1 and it is working fine so far.

    Still find it quite weird that removing the whole modcache directory did not work.

    But anyway, I'm good for now. Thank you!
