The METASPLOIT update released yesterday, 13th August, it's not working on Kali when you try to launch the msfconsole.
The first bug appears on boot.rb file. It reports some error on something named like "GEMFILE".

THis is what i'm getting. Very annoying.

I have the exact same issue!
Metasploit boots but it doesn't find any payloads, exploits,...

thnx. i have already figured out it
i was able to launch msfconsole only under the metasploit dir
cd /usr/share/metasploit-framework/ && ./msfconsole
but before it u need manual setup postgress (make user, db and write it in database.yml)

waiting for fix :confused:

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y worked for me.

I assume you are running the latest and great Kali?

Try

Code:

cd /opt/metasploit

Then type:

Code:

msfpro

the console should load then.

Or just type:

Code:

cd /opt/metasploit && msfpro

this is a one line input method which does the same as the previous: msfconsole command.

i'm running Kali 3.14 i368. unfortunately, your command didn't work either.

this is the output when i try to execute the msfconsole command (note that both the metasploit service and postgresql service are running just fine)

Today, the problem about GEMFILE was solved.
However, a new problem has appeared: msfconsole can't connect to the database.

hey guys :confused:
I wanted to know if the "database connection" is a "bug-momentary" or now I have to create a "" new-my-db "" ??
Thanks in advance

PS:with last Framework Version: 4.10.0-2014082101 the ""problem-remains"..:confused: && i 've created a new db in postgres && new connections...now worked-fine...but it is the right way??
2014-08-25
PePeLeGal

Thx for your help zimmaro!

I think the proper solution must come from metasploit dev team.
Will see if this week we gonna have this fix. :)
2014-08-29
PePeLeGal

I agree zimmaro. Framework Version 4.10.0-2014082101 has a bug and is not connecting the database to the console.
I will wait until the next update.
