[SuperQ]

Can you mention what commit this is built against?

[You-NeverKnow]

@SuperQ Edited the issue to include the commit id

[discordianfish]

Looks like an issue with go. @You-NeverKnow would you be able to build node_exporter from source using a different/older go version?

[You-NeverKnow]

It crashed for go1.11.11 with the same error. Should I go older than this?
I forgot to mention earlier that it crashes only when you request endpoint /metrics

I built it with command <go1.11.11 binary> build <node_exporter folder>.

[discordianfish]

Can you run this and paste the results?

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println(net.Interfaces())
}
