Extension for IBM blockchain is not working properly on Windows: unable to deploy default smartcontract in default environment provided by IBM blockchain extension

[madhurikoduru]

Description

I am trying to use the blockchain extension for simulating the Blockchain network. So as part of it, I have create a new project with the default contract provided by extension. I tried deploying the smart contract under Fabric Environments ->mychannel ->deploy smart contract and imported the MyAsset smart contract. But it is failing with following error "Failed to deploy smart contract, Package was not installed. No packageId was returned" and "Failed to install on peer Org1 Peer with reason: Could not install smart contact received error: failed with status:500 ::failed to invoke backing implementation of 'InstallChaincode': could not build chaincode: external builder failed: external builder failed to build: external builder 'golang' failed: exit status 1

Expected Behavior

Smart contract should be deployed

Actual Behavior

Failing with following error:Failed to deploy smart contract, Package was not installed. No packageId was returned" and "Failed to install on peer Org1 Peer with reason: Could not install smart contact received error: failed with status:500 ::failed to invoke backing implementation of 'InstallChaincode': could not build chaincode: external builder failed: external builder failed to build: external builder 'golang' failed: exit status 1

Unfortunately this project is no longer active- see #3183

For simulating a Blockchain network I would recommend having a look at the following guide, which works in WSL2 on Windows
