I'm following this documentation:

https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/plugin/install/
and I'm trying to install a plugin from a zip file:

root@advance:~# sudo -u www-data wp plugin install ./wordpress/oxygen.4.5.zip --activate --path=/var/www/html/mysite/
Warning: ./wordpress/oxygen.4.5.zip: Invalid plugin slug.
Warning: The './wordpress/oxygen.4.5.zip' plugin could not be found.
Error: No plugins installed.
root@advance:~#

I'm using version:

root@advance:~# sudo -u www-data wp --version
WP-CLI 2.8.1

on ubuntu linux.

Hi @ptahchiev,

What happens when you pass the full path to the ZIP file?

ptahchiev commented

Same thing,
I actually started passing /root/wordpress/oxygen.4.5.zip but then I saw the documentation says ../ and I tried using relative path too. Neither one works

danielbachhuber commented

@ptahchiev A few other questions to help you debug further:

  • Just to confirm, the file actually exists on the path?
  • Are you able to install other plugins from ZIP?
  • Are you able to install plugins from ZIP on other systems?
ptahchiev commented

Yes, the actual file exists. I have 3 plugins to install and none of them work. I can install the same zip plugins if I go to my wordpress website but I want to install them from CLI

danielbachhuber commented

@ptahchiev Can you run sudo -u www-data wp shell --path=/var/www/html/mysite/, is_file ('./wordpress/oxygen.4.5.zip' ); with the shell session, and then share the result?

Here it is:

root@advance:~# ls -la wordpress/oxygen.4.5.zip

@ptahchiev Ah, I think it's a permissions issue. From PHP.net:

Note that is_file() returns false if the parent directory doesn't have +x set for you;

ptahchiev commented

I added +x to the directory:

root@advance:~# chmod +x wordpress/
root@advance:~# ls -al
drwx------  9 root     root      4096 Aug 27 16:58  .

still the same

danielbachhuber commented

@ptahchiev I can't help you further, unfortunately. This problem seems to be specific to your environment, and not WP-CLI.

ptahchiev commented

Moved the wordpress folder outside of /root and into /var/www and it started working.
