NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALIDSSL / TLS

NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID: Your connection is not private (certificate is for a different domain)

The certificate presented doesn’t include the hostname you visited — e.g. visiting www.example.com with a certificate only for ex…

cannot assign to struct field m[k].f in mapGo

Go: cannot assign to struct field users["bob"].Age in map

Map values are not addressable, so you cannot modify a field of a struct stored directly in a map.

panic: assignment to entry in nil mapGo

Go: panic: assignment to entry in nil map

You wrote to a map that was declared but never initialised.

listen tcp :8080: bind: address already in useGo

Go: listen tcp :8080: bind: address already in use

The port your Go server wants is already taken by another process (or a previous instance of your app).

x509: certificate signed by unknown authorityGo

Go: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

The Go TLS client does not trust the CA that signed the server's certificate.

dial tcp: connect: connection refusedGo

Go: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:5432: connect: connection refused

Nothing is listening on the host and port your Go program tried to connect to.

gRPC: Ssl handshake failed / authentication handshake failedSSL / TLS

gRPC: rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = "transport: authentication handshake failed: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority"

A gRPC client could not complete TLS to the server — untrusted certificate, name mismatch, or plaintext/TLS mismatch.

assignment mismatch: 1 variable but f returns 2 valuesGo

Go: assignment mismatch: 1 variable but os.Open returns 2 values

The number of variables on the left does not match the number of values the function returns.

Two steps away (24)

526Cloudflare

Cloudflare Error 526: Invalid SSL Certificate

With SSL mode Full (strict), the origin’s certificate is expired, self-signed, or doesn’t match the hostname.

ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALIDJavaScript

NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID (Your connection is not private)

The site’s certificate isn’t signed by a CA the browser trusts — self-signed, missing intermediates, or intercepted by a proxy.

ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALIDNode.js

Error [ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALID]: Hostname/IP does not match certificate's altnames

The server’s certificate doesn’t cover the hostname you connected to.

imported and not usedGo

Go: ./main.go:5:2: "os" imported and not used

The file imports a package that no code in that file uses; Go treats this as a compile error, not a warning.

undefined: xGo

Go: ./main.go:12:2: undefined: handler

The compiler cannot find an identifier — a typo, a missing import, or it lives in another file/package that wasn't built.

missing returnGo

Go: ./main.go:18:1: missing return

A function with a return type can reach its end without a return statement on some path.

invalid memory address or nil pointer dereferenceGo

Go: panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference

The program used a pointer, map, interface or struct field that was nil — usually an uninitialised value or an ignored error.

panic: runtime error: index out of rangeGo

Go: panic: runtime error: index out of range [3] with length 3

Code accessed a slice, array or string element beyond its length.

panic: slice bounds out of rangeGo

Go: panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range [:5] with capacity 3

A slice expression `s[a:b]` used bounds outside the slice's length or capacity.

port is already allocatedDocker

Docker: Bind for 0.0.0.0:80 failed: port is already allocated

Another container or host process already publishes that host port.

network not foundDocker

Error response from daemon: network X not found

The container or Compose project refers to a Docker network that doesn’t exist (any more).

Pool overlapsDocker

Error response from daemon: Pool overlaps with other one on this address space

Docker tried to create a network whose subnet clashes with an existing Docker network (or a VPN/host route).

cannot find package in any of GOROOT / GOPATHGo

Go: cannot find package "github.com/pkg/errors" in any of: /usr/local/go/src/github.com/pkg/errors (from $GOROOT) /go/src/github.com/pkg/errors (from $GOPATH)

Go could not locate an imported package — it is not downloaded, the module is not initialised, or GOPATH mode is in effect.

invalid character looking for beginning of valueGo

Go: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value

The decoder received something that is not JSON — often an HTML error page, an empty body or plain text.

unable to get local issuer certificateSSL / TLS

OpenSSL: error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate / SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED

The client could not build a chain from the server's certificate to a CA it trusts — the issuer is missing locally or the server…

iptables: No chain/target/matchDocker

driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint: iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

Docker’s iptables rules were wiped (firewalld/ufw reload, iptables flush) while Docker was running, so it can’t publish ports.

context deadline exceededGo

Go: Get "https://api.example.com": context deadline exceeded (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

An operation did not finish before its context deadline or HTTP client timeout.

http: superfluous response.WriteHeader callGo

Go: http: superfluous response.WriteHeader call from main.handler (main.go:25)

A handler wrote the status header more than once, or wrote the body first (which sends 200) and then tried to set another status.

SSL routines: wrong version numberSSL / TLS

OpenSSL: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number

The peer did not answer with a TLS record — you spoke TLS to a plain HTTP/SMTP port (or the reverse), or a proxy intervened.

sslv3 alert handshake failureSSL / TLS

OpenSSL: error:14094410:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert handshake failure (SSL alert number 40)

The server aborted the handshake with alert 40 — no acceptable parameters (cipher, signature algorithm, client certificate or SNI…

tlsv1 unrecognized name (SNI)SSL / TLS

OpenSSL: SSL alert number 112 — tlsv1 unrecognized name

The server did not recognise the hostname sent in SNI and rejected the handshake (or an alert/warning is logged).

no new variables on left side of :=Go

Go: ./main.go:9:6: no new variables on left side of :=

`:=` declares variables, but all names on the left already exist in the same scope.

invalid operation: mismatched typesGo

Go: invalid operation: a + b (mismatched types int and float64)

You combined two values of different types; Go never converts numeric types implicitly.

cannot use x as type in assignment/argumentGo

Go: cannot use "5" (untyped string constant) as int value in argument to f

A value's type is not assignable to the type required by the variable, parameter or return value.
