  • From source: git clone https://github.com/sqlmapproject/sqlmap.git && cd sqlmap && sudo python setup.py install
• Verify installation: sqlmap --version

4. “Configuration issues”

• Run sqlmap-ai --config-wizard to fix setup
• Check sqlmap-ai --validate-config for issues

5. “Request file not working”

• Ensure request file has proper HTTP format
• Check that Host header is present
