How to make go work with files not in the home directory?

Question

linux

Hello!
There is a dedicated section. I want to specify one of its directories as GOPATH. When running the executable file in the terminal, an error occurs that access is denied.
If GOPATH contains a directory from the home directory, then everything works.
I tried to change the rights to the executable file, I made a symbol. link in the home directory - did not help.
Tell me, how can I make go work not in the home directory?

That's how it works! But on the condition that you do not download modules in GOPATH, since by itself you will need write permissions for this.

GOROOT=/usr/local/go
GOPATH=/root
/usr/local/go/bin/go build -o /tmp/test $HOME/go/src/awesomeProject/main.go
/tmp/test
