failed to initialize build cache at /root/Library/Caches/go-build: mkdir /root: read-only file system

If I run this using task from Terminal it works.

But when run from task-ui it fails.

Not quite sure what's going on yet...

I am NOT running inside docker BTW.
Does this automatically invoke docker ?

go version go1.22.1 darwin/arm64

Task-UI:

task: [hot] go build -o ./webui_bin cmd/webui/main.go
failed to initialize build cache at /root/Library/Caches/go-build: mkdir /root: read-only file system
task: Failed to run task "hot": exit status 1

Taskfile.yml:

# https://taskfile.dev

version: "3"

interval: 100ms

vars:
  NAME: "webui"
  BIN_NAME: "{{.NAME}}_bin"
  VERSION:
    sh: cat library/package.json| jq -r .version

  hot:
    desc: Server hot reload

    sources:
      - "**/*.go"
      - "webui/static/**/*"
      - "{{.NAME}}/static/**/*"
    
    cmds:
      #- go mod tidy
      - go build -o ./{{.BIN_NAME}} cmd/{{.NAME}}/main.go
      - ./{{.BIN_NAME}}


  default:
    deps:
      - hot
    silent: false

Task-ui only invokes task, task then invokes go build. If go build is failing, may be an actual permission issue? List the folder permission bits and check the user task-ui is running as?

@titpetric

thanks for the followup.. It's a really outstanding tool. I really want to use this in my OPS.

go build in fine. No problems there.

I suspect that task.ui assumes your running inside docker ? The READM does say "Task UI is meant for Docker environments"

I wonder how much work it would be to make this work with and without docker ?

am closing this because the other issue is closer to the problem I think...
