BT5 + Metasploit + PostgreSQL

[Nyk0n]

Is the .rc file just simply a text document with a .rc extention? The file's properties dialog box shows it as a plain text document. I just wanted to verify I'm not doing things wrong.

Thank you very much for the tutorial.

I'm trying to use the the in-built postgresql and what I get is:

Error while running command db_connect: Failed to connect to the database: could not connect to server: Connection refused
	Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting
	TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

What is this noob doing wrong?

Thank you in advance

I've installed and configured succesfully (I hope that) postgresql in msf. I can db_import ok but when I'm trying to execute db_hosts command it says:

[-] Unknown command: db_hosts.
msf >

The same result I get when I'm trying the db_destroy command. Why is happening ?

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

Edit: The command renamed to: hosts? or I am blind? :P

Please help. I am trying to connect to posgresql database. I am using BackTrackKDE 5 R2 Below are the commands that I used:

apt-get install postgresql libpq-dev
sudo su postgres -c psql
ALTER USER postgres WITH PASSWORD 'novirus';
\q
sudo passwd -d postgres
sudo su postgres -c passwd
update-alternatives --config ruby
choose 0 for "auto-mode"
gem install pg
msfconsole
db_driver postgresql
db_connect postgres:novirus@127.0.0.1/metasploit (“metasploit” being the name of the database)

But I am getting the error " Error while running command db_connect: Failed to connect to the database: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "postgres"

I used the same commands with Bactrack 5 R2 GNOME and it works fine.

Metasploit comes with it's own postgresql server now, so you don't need the configuration anymore.
