Unable to run a specific linter

[toby3d]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using a binary release within 2 latest major releases. Only such installations are supported.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've included all information below (version, config, etc).
• Yes, I've tried with the standalone linter if available. (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/linters/)

Description of the problem

The utility is not able to run with any particular linter specified through the corresponding flags. Even the example on the website (last example on this page) leads to a similar result.

I think the output from your run is pretty clear:

ERRO Running error: --enable-all and --disable-all options must not be combined

Your configuration enables all linters and you're trying to disable all with the flags. To only run one linter, run without your configuration file:

golangci-lint run -v --no-config --disable-all --enable lll
