Hello,
I am trying to update the nikto, but i'm getting the following error like other users.

`~/nikto/nikto/program# perl nikto.pl -update
+ ERROR (404): Unable to get cirt.net/nikto/UPDATES/2.1.6/versions.txt`
~/nikto/nikto# git pull
Already up-to-date.

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04

How to solve that? thank you

I don't understand.
I downloaded the zip file and I uploaded it on ftp. Does not work.
I downloaded the file with git clone. Does not work.
I tried to give git pull, reading some old posts. Still not working

  1. nikto -update is deprecated for the git version. I should probably patch that.
  2. You have the latest version - there's nothing up update to

I've added a deprecation message just to state this explicitly. I'm still keeping the code for now as this will all change as of 2.2.0.
