Error: disabled by -mod=readonly

[gedw99]

when i run it with no args:

 ⨯ upgrade failed            error=Error running go command to discover modules: exit status 1 stderr=go: updates to go.sum needed, disabled by -mod=readonly

have been getting this every since i upgrades go to 1.20.5. Or it might be the repos i am upgrading.. not sure sure right now what going on...

@oligot

Ok i was right - i changed to go 1.20.4 and then go-mod-upgrade works again.

i guess the go team changed something ...

[gedw99]

i have gotip, and so need to try it with that.. maybe its fixed there..

Could you test the workaround proposed in issue 60667 and see if it works for you ?

[gedw99]

Can sone else try. Am in a work crunch …

Can confirm that it fails for 1.20.5 and works for 1.20.4; and I'm in a crunch too. Looks like this is an upstream issue anyway.

[gedw99]

I was planning to try it on gotip today. Curious what it does there.

Will try tomorrow

i am an idiot . wrong issue

please see my test here: #40 (comment)

it all seems to be ok if you use higher go mod version and go tip at least.

even go list throws the same:
go list -m -u -f '{{if not .Indirect}}{{.Path}} {{.Deprecated}}{{end}}' all
go: updates to go.sum needed, disabled by -mod=readonly

confirming saw this issue and that go mod tidy -compat=1.16 then re-running go-mod-upgrade worked just fine w/ go 1.20.5

Thanks @carlmontanari for your feedback !
I'm closing this issue, as this is an upstream bug (golang/go#60667).
Feel free to reopen if the problem persists.
