Metasploit "please run msfdb as non root user"

[theo1996]

When i updated my MSF to the latest nightly build 4.11.4 ,whenever i try to launch msfconsole it says that i have to initialize msfdb as a non rot user ,what to do?
OS:Kali Linux 2.0 64 bit

By the sounds of it, you are not using the Metasploit package in Kali.
Either their package/setup or from the github.

You would need to contact them (rapid7).

Yeah. I'm using a fresh Kali rolling install - and I get the same error. Plus, only using the Kali rolling repos and not Rapid7's metasploit package. What information should I post to help everyone troubleshoot this thing and move forward?

Do this:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
cd [whatever directory you put msfconsole in, usually /opt]
sudo msfconsole [if this doesn't do anything do "sudo ./msfconsole"]
