Seems like you have not set the right PATH. Set the Correct path of Go in environment variable.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:longsleep/golang-backports
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y golang-go make
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric
make docker

This should work

You need to set the proper go path:

export GOPATH=$HOME/go export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin

Hello every one. 

I have the same problem. I fixed the following way. 


sudo  chmod -R 777 path_to_first_network_folder

For example


sudo chmod -R 777 /Users/name/chapter15/fabric-samples/first-network
