I've downloaded Go-Ethereum to develop an Ethereum App to process dummy transactions to understand the flow of Cryptocurrency.

Now, I've been trying to execute the "make all" command from the go-etherium directory to build the target files but I'm still getting errors even after I've set the path correctly in the .bashrc file. I'm getting the error: make: *** [Makefile:21: all] Error 1

What should I do to make this work?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Following is the screenshot of the same:-

Note:- The OS I'm using here is Ubuntu.

Here is the complete error in text form:

I think this has most likely something to do with your Golang environment variables rather than with go-ethereum, see How do I install requirements in Go? "cannot find package".

Besides that, I just want to note that you can also install go-ethereum just via PPAs on Ubuntu described in the docs:

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ethereum/ethereum
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ethereum

You can also replace ethereum with ethereum-unstable for the developer version.

You should move the repo to ~/go/src/github.com/ethereum/.

For Go, GitHub repo should clone to $GOPATH/src/github.com/${USERNAME}/${REPO_NAME}.

The default value of $GOPATH is ~/go.

See https://golang.org/doc/gopath_code#Organization
