No connection to Database for metasploit after update - solution

[g0tmi1k]

"db_connect -y /etc/dradis/database.yml" it would be working for every kali 2.0 user.

DO NOT DO THIS..

This is linking the use of a 3rd party application (database) into Metasploit & progresql.

If you are using Kali 2 or kali rolling, use msfdb init

root@kali:~# msfdb init
Creating database user 'msf'
Enter password for new role: 
Enter it again: 
Creating databases 'msf' and 'msf_test'
Creating configuration file in /usr/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml
Creating initial database schema
root@kali:~#

As you can see - it will create the database file for you /usr/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml
...if something goes wrong, msfdb reinit

I'm facing this problem, and i did all that.. but the connection keep failing..

	TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
