Recently, I installed the Kali Linux using the Virtual Images. I ran the WpScan application and run into the error ruby: No such file or directory -- ./wpscan.rb (LoadError)
Step to replicate:
1. Download the VM image from https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-vmware-virtualbox-image-download/
2. In the VM open the WpScan application
3. in the terminal, type in ruby ./wpscan.rb --url www.example.com, enter
4. error: ruby: No such file or directory -- ./wpscan.rb (LoadError)
Solution:
On the terminal, enter the following command to download wpscan from the repository
1. git clone https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan.git
Note that this command will download the wpscan folder to the current directory. In my scenario, the new command look like
2. ruby ./wpscan/wpscan.rb --url www.example.com
