Let's just confirm what you did.
You started a server with godoc at port 6060 then when you visit it your package isn't listed.

Can you try the following things:

  • Try using the flag -index and search a regexp in the query box.
  • Try manually searching for the package instead of using the query box.
  • Try using go doc <package>
