Subject of the issue

I just upgraded from Ubuntu Server 20.04 to Ubuntu Server 22.04.
After the upgrade I tried updating my wpscan version with wpscan --update but it gives me the following errors:

wpscan --update
bash: /usr/local/bin/wpscan: /usr/bin/ruby2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

wpscan -v does the same thing:

wpscan -v
bash: /usr/local/bin/wpscan: /usr/bin/ruby2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Your environment

• Version of WPScan: Latest version from Ubuntu 20.04, otherwise unkown because wpscan -v doesn't work.
• Version of Ruby: ruby 3.0.2p107 (2021-07-07 revision 0db68f0233) [aarch64-linux-gnu]
• Operating System (OS): Ubuntu Server 22.04.4 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)

Steps to reproduce

Just upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 22.04. Then run wpscan --update or wpscan -v.

Expected behavior

if wpscan --update, then wpscan should update itself properly, or if running wpscan -v, it should show it's version.

Actual behavior

wpscan -v
bash: /usr/local/bin/wpscan: /usr/bin/ruby2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

wpscan --update
bash: /usr/local/bin/wpscan: /usr/bin/ruby2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

What have you already tried

I havent tried anything. I just wanted to report the issue right away so that I didn't make any mistakes fixing it by myself. Hopefully I get some fixes from this post.

• Update WPScan to the latest version [ Can't do that]
• Update Ruby to the latest version [YES: ruby/jammy,now 1:3.0~exp1, ruby 3.0.2p107 (2021-07-07 revision 0db68f0233) [aarch64-linux-gnu]]
• Ensure you can reach the target site using cURL [ Dont know what this means]
• Proxied WPScan through a HTTP proxy to view the raw traffic [ No, Don't know how to do this]
• Ensure you are using a supported Operating System (Linux and macOS) [Fairly certain Ubuntu 22.04 is supported ]

What can I do to fix this?

Now it's working. I'm not positive becuse I for document the solution to this issue, but if my memory is correct, I just downloaded Ruby again. Now I have ruby 2.0.2p107, and things are working. I think during my Ubuntu 20 upgrade to Ubuntu 2204, The upgrade removed th ruby 2.7 packages as I think it's deprecated with Ubuntu 22.04. So basically, If I remember correctly, I just installed a modern version of Ruby in Ubuntu 22.04, and this error went away. Everything seems to be working correctly again. Maybe this post will help others.

Thanks.
