    Hi,

    Getting these errors when installing Wordfence using wp CLI.
    Wordpress was a clean install.

    Are these normal for Wordfence and plugin still works 100%?
    What can be done to get a clean install without errors?

    Hi @d1g1tal,

    It looks like Wordfence can’t write to wp-content/wflogs/*.

    There’s a few things you can try:

    1. Manually create the wp-content/wflogs/* folder, and make sure Wordfence can read/write inside that folder

    2. Tell Wordfence to store the contents of wflogs/* in the database instead

    You can do this by editing wordfence-waf.php and adding define('WFWAF_STORAGE_ENGINE', 'mysqli'); right after <?php on a new line.

    https://www.wordfence.com/help/firewall/mysqli-storage-engine/

    The above link describes in more detail on how to do this.

    —

    What this means is that upon installation you will always receive these errors if your host is preventing read/write to wp-content/wflogs/*, but after the changes in 2), your Wordfence installation should function normally.

    Hi,

    I even tried that I manually create wp-content/wflogs/ folder (chmod 777) before installing wordfence, but still getting same errors.
    Running wp plugin install “wordfence” is always without errors, but when I activate it:
    wp plugin activate “wordfence”
    It gives the same errors not matter what I do.

    But after activation, wp-content/wflogs/ folder is there, it was created and filled with files.

    After installing Wordfence, it’s giving the following errors on EVERY command from the WordPress CLI, but the WAF isn’t even enabled.
