I'd check a few things, 1. Uninstall any version of Go provided by your is, if it's Ubuntu, the package will be called golang-go. 2. Unset every environment variable save GOPATH. If you are following the installations from golang.org, you never need to set GOROOT. 3. Delete /usr/local/go and unpack a fresh tarball. The error you reported is usually caused by unpacking one version of go over another.
If none of this helps please reply with the output of which go go env go version And the full output, including the commands you entered, and it should be pretty easy to figure it out from there.
