metasploit / autopawn

can someone please explain to me how bt5 can be released and the live disc can not use autopawn with metasploit because the db_connect cannot load driver without u having to first download it?

i tried bt5 kde, gnome, and vmware image and checked the hashes but none of them worked?

i do not have the facilities to download drivers we work through a proxy and apt-get does not work even if i setup the proxy in the conf file. it is a https proxy with authentication but it does not work with user:pass@proxy:80 configuration showed in file.

Try this, even tough you cant apt-get *

I get this using both mysql and postgres

Code:

---

msf > db_driver mysql[*] Using database driver mysql
msf > db_connect root:toor@127.0.0.1/msf3
[-] Error while running command db_connect: Failed to connect to the database: uninitialized constant MysqlCompat::MysqlRes

any tips? yes I googled and searched and typed 6 wrong capatchas

So you have a good download of BT5? Have you tried reinstalling? I'm running BackTrack (32-bit gnome) in a virtual machine, and metasploit worked with postgresql right out of the box.

I have had the same problem, switching back to ruby 1.8 and rebuilding the mysql module worked for me.

You'll need the follwing package:

Code:

---

apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

---

Then switch back to ruby 1.8:

Code:

---

update-alternatives --config ruby

---

Select the first option.

Then:

Code:

---

gem install mysql

---

Start metasploit and connect:

Code:

---

ruby /pentest/exploits/framework3/msfconsole
db_driver mysql
db_connect user:password@127.0.0.1:3306/database_name

---

As for postgres, metasploit seems to come with its own postgres instance, you can connect with a config file by the -y switch, which is quite convenient:

Code:

---

db_connect -y /opt/framework3/config/database.yml

Metasploit is using it's own Postgresql database now :) also from what I remember db_autopwn was removed.
