'Why cannot find declaration to go to in IntelliJ Idea?
I have a code in go, and I am using IntelliJIdea for development. It used to work fine, but since the time I have changed the folder where the code used to be, IntelliJ has been behaving in a weird manner. It shows me a lot of unable to find declaration to go to errors. After changing the folder where my project used to be, I changed the GOPATH and imported from the new directory once again.
I am attaching the screenshot as that will be better for understanding.
See the conductor.Start(). This function is right there in the package app. But it can't find this.
PS: I have tried importing the project from scratch and invalidating and restarting multiple times, but that didn't help.

I'm using Gogland, which is also a JetBrains IDE, but I also had a problem with symbols not getting resolved.
I fixed it by deleting the project's index file.
- Close the IDE.
- In your project directory, find a directory named ".idea".
- Delete all files with the extension ".iml" in that directory.
- Restart the IDE.
The project should get reindexed and symbols will be resolved.

For my case, Intellij didn't have Rust installed. I found that out while trying to create a new project (it had JAVA and other language support). As soon as I installed Rust, it worked.

For my case, I have 2 virtual environments, and I found that I did not set the correct environment in Pycharm. The environment I used did not include these packages. After I changed the environment, everything goes well.
