Building Go Executables: The cgo / Docker Problem

In this example, we want to build a web server in Docker. ‪@MikiTebeka‬ shows us how cgo can create some roadblocks with our Alpine Docker image and how to solve them.

Quick answer: When you try to run Docker and get a ‘not found’ error, it may be due to cgo using an external library. Set cgo_enabled=0 in order to tell Go not to use cgo at all.
