Host platform: Windows 8.1
Running 32bit Kali 1.0.6 in Virtual
After a clean install when I run:
service postgresql start;service metasploit start;msfconsole
I receive:
Failed to connect to the database: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "msf3"
FATAL: password authentication failed for user "msf3"
and I haven't found anywhere else on google that this problem exists... other than a guy on twitter asking metasploit how to fix it...
Anyone have any suggestions?

Update/Work Around 29Jan14:
I've still yet to discover a fix for this issue. But I have discovered the cause and a workaround: It appears that when using any 32bit systems or vms downloaded from kali.org i will receive this error. But it does not appear to be present in the 64bit versions. So my work around is to install a 64bit version and this appears to solve the issue for me.
