Gobuster not working

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled gobuster and go a countless amount of times and no matter what command i put in i a command I recieve the error

Wordlist must be specified
Domain must be specified

All that’s suggested online is that I’m not using the most up to date version but I am and it’s really frustrating

can you paste the command you’re using ?

Yeah sorry I was so frustrated yesterday I forgot it would be smart to include it.

gobuster dir --url http://10.129.61.180/ --wordlist /usr/share/wordlists/SecLists/Discovery/Web-Content/discovery-list-2.3-small.txt

and the error I’m receiving is:

14:18:37 [!] 2 errors occurred:
* WordList (-w): Must be specified (use -w - for stdin)
* Url/Domain (-u): Must be specified

but this error occurs no matter if i use the -w input or not

Just to confirm, youve changed the syntax for both the wordlist and url switches to:
-u
-w

Yes I have tried both, but the result is the same

You may be using old linux versions such as kali 1.0; these have stopped getting updated. Get the new kali version or whatever penetration testing OS you prefer.

What module are you working on, if may ask?

Sorry for the massive delay, I’m almost never logged into the forums. Have you tried completely purging the install? or installing via pip?

the link is bad that the course provides for the common.txt do this to get it work

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danielmiessler/SecLists/master/Discovery/Web-Content/common.txt -O/usr/share/wordlists/common.txt

then execute the line below

sudo gobuster dir -w /usr/share/wordlists/common.txt -u {your target IP}

i figured this out today ■■■■
