I am using Ruby ruby 2.3.0p0 (2015-12-25 revision 53290) [x86_64-linux]
Version of wpscan : installed by git seems 2.9
operating system :: Ubuntu 14.04
General steps
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev ruby-dev build-essential libgmp-dev
git clone https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan.git
cd wpscan
sudo gem install bundler && bundle install --without test

after that updated ruby to 2.3.0
yes tried to install the readline as
gem install readline'
and
'gem install --user-install readline'.

[ethicalhack3r]

And what is the output when you try to install readline? Does it install correctly? Does it give an error?

[Crypto-Breaker]

when i tried to install with
'gem install --user-install readline'. and in other manner as gem install readline'
it is showing as
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'readline' (>= 0) in any repository
ERROR: Possible alternatives: deadline, redline, deadlinez, deadlink, headliner

[ethicalhack3r]

Ah! Looks like it should be rb-readline.

Try gem install rb-readline and/or gem install --user-install rb-readline

[Crypto-Breaker]

that also i tried

[ethicalhack3r]

And what was the output of that?

[Crypto-Breaker]

ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don't have write permissions for the /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0 directory.

then i tried as the root user
now there is a path issue
WARNING: You don't have /home/pavanvadrevu/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin in your PATH,
gem executables will not run.

[Crypto-Breaker]

i solved that issue but setting up the path for the gem now i am again getting error with bundler
[ERROR] cannot load such file -- bundler/setup

[Crypto-Breaker]

sudo gem install bundler && bundle install --without test again i am installing bundler

[ethicalhack3r]

Awesome! :) All working now?

[Crypto-Breaker]

Now it could not found the bundler to find that

@pavan4information i suggest you use the suggested RVM install method:
https://github.com/wpscanteam/wpscan#installing-with-rvm-recommended

Using this all should work without errors

[Crypto-Breaker]

When i am following the above guide lines i am getting the following error

and if i am generally executing the ruby
i am getting the following error

[Crypto-Breaker]

please resolve this issue as early possible bro ...
i am waiting from a long time and trying other things doesnt making to work

[ethicalhack3r]

Run the suggested command in the output:

gpg --keyserver ....

[ethicalhack3r]

This issue is an implementation issue not a WPScan issue. You need to learn how to debug problems by yourself, starting by reading error output.

[Crypto-Breaker]

Thanks for the Things Finally Chased.....
Thank U @FireFart and @ethicalhack3r
