Hi everyone. Yesterday i was trying to re-enact this scenario but when it comes to msfconsole i got the following error.

msf > db_create pheaneasphreak

Warning: The db_create command is deprecated, use db_connect instead.
The database and schema will be created automatically by db_connect. If db_connect fails
to create the database, create it manually with your DBMS' s administration tools.

createdb: could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting connections to Unix domain socket
"/var/run/postgresql/ .s.PGSQL.5432" ?
Error while running command db_create: Failed to connect to database: could not connect to server:
connection refused.
Is the server running on host "127.0.01" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?


What does that mean and how can i fix that? I am new to this Backtrack thing.Thanks in advance

dear sir,

when i was typing db_create k4t41, it was appear a command like this : http://i34.tinypic.com/5yaj9z.png
could someone tell me what was the meaning?

tks

Are you using backtrack? Which version?
I believe thats the error when you don't have the correct driver for the database installed.
What is the output when you try:

db_driver

You can either change the driver to one you have install, or install it!

Postgres is the recommended database:
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.4
$ sudo apt-get install rubygems libpq-dev
$ sudo gem install pg

Or for MySQL:
$ sudo apt-get install mysql-server
$ sudo apt-get install rubygems libmysqlclient-dev
$ sudo gem install mysql

Sqlite will work for basic tasks, but is no longer supported!
$ sudo apt-get install sqlite3
$ sudo apt-get install rubygems libsqlite3-dev
$ sudo gem install sqlite3-ruby

What problem is that? The driver issue?
What is "its"? What installed?

Well... Im not sure what your problem is as "postgresql" is installed! You're also using it!

msf > db_driver
[*] Active Driver: postgresql[*] Available: postgresql, mysql, sqlite3

Plus when you try to install it again - it says that its installed!
