Summary0008595: Harvester displaying error in code before running and if not using bash beforre running permission denied
Description

I'm new to Kali Linux and am taking an Udemy course on ethical hacking, one of the activities was to use the harvester, to gather information, basically teaching me how to use it. However, when I tried to run it, it told me I wasn't allowed to use it, though I am a root user. The first image is what I got for trying to run it. Once receiving this error, I looked online and tried to use bash before running the harvester. The second image shows what happens, which looks like an error in the code. I'm not sure what to do, since nothing I could find online shows anything like this. If you could help a newbie like me out it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch,
Nanya(1manewbie)
