Unable to serve site after updates

[dayabin]

Howdy,

Thanks for clicking in. I made my website with blogdown and hugo. After a regular check of the release note in wowchemy, I updated the go.mod file and the config.yaml file (with the latest module). However, the site won't serve after the updates.

Please see my go.mod and config.yaml below. The complete package of files can be found in github

module github.com/wowchemy/starter-hugo-academic

go 1.15

require (
  github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify-cms
  github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify
  github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy/v5
)

module:
imports:
       - path: github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify-cms
      - path: github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify
      - path: github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy/v5

After I clicked the "Serve Site" button in RStudio, I got error messages saying

Launching the server via the command:
  hugo.exe server --bind 127.0.0.1 -p 4321 --themesDir themes -D -F --navigateToChanged

Any ideas??? Thank you for the help.

Error: go: errors parsing go.mod:

This sounds like a go problem irrelevant to blogdown.

For blogdown users, we don't recommend wowchemy themes. If you have to use them, we recommend that you don't upgrade if you have got a working site.

BTW, our team is currently on vacation, so we can't help much until Jan 3 next year.

OK. Thanks for the responses. Following the error messages, I added the version of the module.

module github.com/wowchemy/starter-hugo-academic

go 1.15

require (
    github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify v1.0.0 // indirect
    github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify-cms v1.0.0 // indirect
    github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy-plugin-reveal v1.0.0 // indirect
    github.com/wowchemy/wowchemy-hugo-themes/modules/wowchemy/v5 v5.7.1-0.20221127215619-58b270a3e103
)

However, new messages occurred saying unknown revision modules/wowchemy-plugin-netlify/v1.0.0.

Thanks for your advice on upgrading. I would be very much obliged if you could help me with this issue (after the holiday ends). But if this is out of your domain, it's OK.

Again, I think this is a go issue instead of blogdown. I know nothing about go, and I'm really unable to help you with that. Sorry.

Thanks again for the responses!

The problem was solved by placing a line of code (see below) in the config.yaml file.

module:
  proxy: https://goproxy.cn

Thanks for sharing the solution!
