Error instantiating chaincode in Hyperledger Fabric 1.1.0 - hyperledger-fabric

Question

I am trying to instantiate chaincode in Hyperledger Fabric peer 1.1.0. I have downloaded 1.1.0 version fabric samples and docker containers. The fabcar application got instantiated successfully.
However when I instantiate my chaincode, the peer quits with the following error.

As I can see above, it is not taking go code from $GOPATH which is /home/ubuntu/software/golang.
I have installed the fabric and samples using the command.
as mentioned in
https://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/release-1.4/install.html
passing arguments "1.1.0 1.1.0 0.4.15"
I could see that the chaincode init method gets executed from the application logs.
func (t *SimpleChaincode) Init(stub shim.ChaincodeStubInterface) pb.Response {
fmt.Println("Init firing.")
// Initialize the collection of commercial paper keys
fmt.Println("Initializing user accounts")
//t.createUser(stub, []string{"importerBank", "importerBank", "Importer Bank"})
//t.createUser(stub, []string{"customs", "customs", "Customs"})
//t.createUser(stub, []string{"exporterBank", "exporterBank", "Exporter Bank"})
//t.createUser(stub, []string{"exporter", "exporter", "Exporter"})
fmt.Println("Initializing LC keys collection if not present")
valAsbytes, err := stub.GetState("LCKeys")
if err == nil {
var keys []string
err = json.Unmarshal(valAsbytes, &keys)
fmt.Println("Existing LC : %v", keys);
if len(keys) > 0 {
for _, key := range keys {
valAsbytes, err := stub.GetState(key)
if err == nil {
var lc LC
err = json.Unmarshal(valAsbytes, &lc)
if err == nil {
if lc.CurrentStatus == "" {
lc.CurrentStatus = "Created"
keysBytesToWrite, _ := json.Marshal(lc)
if err == nil {
err = stub.PutState(key, keysBytesToWrite)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error writing LC to chain" + err.Error())
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
fmt.Println("Initialization complete")
I would like to know why the peer quits?

Answer 1

Try adding - GODEBUG=netdns=go in the environment section of the docker compose file for every peer and orderer.
