@firefart I don't like such specific things, we did it in the v2 but people still tried to install whatever rather than open a bug issue on the Kali tracker. Here I don't get the error, it says require activesupport 4.2.1 even though the ~> 5.2 is in the gemspec, and then when the 4.2.1 is installed, it says that the 4.2.1 is already loaded and can't load the 5.2.x. Something went clearly wrong after updating Kali it seems |
|
@erwanlr jeah but people tend to make it worse by installing the gems manually :/ |
|
@ethicalhack3r Yes this happens when trying to run @firefart and @erwanlr Should I uninstall and re-install Ruby, then re-install wpscan? This could be a well known quirk of Ruby, but if you didn't know better, the messaging , to me at least, indicated a simple fix of "Just install version 4.2.1 of activesupport". That is why I performed those steps. |
|
normally this messes things up in kali if you try to install gems as everything is bundled in kali together. So you can try reinstalling wpscan via apt again and see if this fixes the error |

Ah ok, I ran |
|
can anyone solve the problem ? |

I would open an issue on the Kali bug tracker (https://bugs.kali.org/view_all_bug_page.php) or forum (https://forums.kali.org/forum.php) |

Following... Getting the same error on Kali, when triggering the command wpscan. |
|
@sumgro as @ethicalhack3r said it's an kali issue, not a wpscan issue. Can you please open a bug on the kali bug tracker and link it here? https://bugs.kali.org/main_page.php |
|
@firefart created a ticket on kali bug tracker - https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=5120 |
|
this seems to have been caused by clash of 2 processes of installing via gem and through kali repositories... https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=5120# Can anyone confirm this? |
|
TLDR; If using Kali do not install wpscan from any other source (such as |
|
Here is what I did to resolve this (based on the suggestion) Remove wpscan installed manually through gem - gem uninstall wpscan wpscan now works. |
True that... |
|
I also have this issue so im following this thread. |
This does not work for me.
|
|
@Rzqu this seems like a different error... maybe @ethicalhack3r can confirm |
|
@sumgro After re-installing wpscan through gem i get this
Installing it through apt-get install does nothing for me, the install goes through but when running wpscan i end up with this
|
|
@Rzqu could try removing wpscan through both gem and apt, use: Then, install it via apt using: apt install wpscan |
|
@sumgro Ive tried what you suggested and im now faced with this error
|
|
I solved the same problem with this sequence
|
Unfortunately this didnt fix my problem, same error as above
Whats interesting is that in /usr/bin/ wpscan doesnt exist, even after apt-get install wpscan |
|
I did this sequence: And still having the same error: |
|
@dhd0004 have a look at this https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=5134 Apparently mine was leaving little gems behind (excuse the pun) i renamed /var/lib/gems/2.5.0/gems to /var/lib/gems/2.5.0/gems.old and my WPScan started working. Maybe try that? |
|
that did not word for me:
Y renamed from this:
Error still persists:
|
|
@dhd0004 Im assuming that youve already done gem uninstall wpscan before renaming that folder? |
|
yes, i executed these commands:
|
|
i typed "gem install wpscan" in terminal and i open wpscan and it works |
|
I followed this serial, but not working
