root@sabresd_6dq:/ # wpa_cli -i wlan0

Could not connect to wpa_supplicant: wlan0 - re-trying

root@sabresd_6dq:/ #

root@sabresd_6dq:/ # wpa_cli scan

Using interface 'wlan0'

Failed to connect to non-global ctrl_ifname: wlan0  error: No such file or directory

Please provide any solution for this. how to make it work wpa_cli through command line.
