I got this error while trying to install Wordfence cli in ubuntu 24 E: Unsupported file ./wordfence.deb given on commandline

@utibe-ettebong What command are you running? Are you using apt (recommended) or dpkg to install this?

You should be able to install it using:

sudo apt install ./wordfence.deb

(using apt over dpkg will handle installing dependencies automatically)

Also, just to confirm that the package downloaded correctly, can you verify the checksum of your local file, it should match:

3294cfa8f981b8245189b5e76d49f43c9e4c9bd0aa721b90d517f480854a1838

You can verify this by running:

sha256sum wordfence.deb

We regularly test the Debian package on Ubuntu 24.04 and I just tested it myself and it worked as expected, so it should be compatible.

@utibe-ettebong Wordfence CLI is not available in the official Ubuntu repos at present, so you'll need to manually download the .deb package from GitHub prior to attempting to install it.

You can download the latest version from the following URL: https://github.com/wordfence/wordfence-cli/releases/latest/download/wordfence.deb

Once downloaded, you'll need to replace wordfence.deb in the commands above with the path to the downloaded file.

@utibe-ettebong Are you installing using dpkg or apt? I'd recommend using apt install /path/to/wordfence.deb as this will automatically install dependencies. If using dpkg, you'll need to either manually install the dependencies (listed in the output above) or use apt-get install -f to fix the missing dependencies.
