Metasploit Error after update

[SajberKod]

Hi guys! Five times I reinstall backtrack 5 and i enough of that!
So here is problem.....
BackTrack works ok. Updates appeared! I install all of them(including metasploit)

Now when my system boots up, first thing after startx is text that appears at my monitor! There is written:

FATAL: bogus data in lock file "postmaster.pid": ""
/opt/framework3/postgresql/scripts.ctl.sh : postgresql could not be started

And then, start up splash screen loads...(Normally!)
After that i open metasploit and get angry!

Before it loads it says:

Any help? Suggestions?

[scottm99]

Which version of BT5 are you using? Is it a vm image? I'm using the 32-bit BT5 gnome image, and ran msfupdate earlier today with no problems. Was google any help?

Once you get postgresql starting ok, try running db_connect –y /opt/framework3/config/database.yml at an msf> prompt. This will connect you to the built-in postgresql instance.

I can verify this for gnome 64 bit installed to hard drive.

I am running BackTrack5 32bit KDE. I love BT5, and really need metasploit :/
Any ideas?

[scottm99]

My svn rev is 12883, and it's working ok.

12883 was also working fine for me, 12884 killed it

[SajberKod]

Maybe try restarting the framework-postgres service in /etc/init.d/? - This usually gets me around that error. I also configure all my postgresql instances' usernames and passwords to be the same, which will require running psql in their native installed directories and also editing the properties.ini file accordingly in the framwork directory under /opt/. So for instance, if I want to change the password for postgres user under the framework3's postgres instance, I'll navigate to /opt/framework3/postgresql/bin/ and then run "su postgres -c psql template1" enter the password given in the properties.ini file, and then run "ALTER USER postgres WITH PASSWORD 'newpassword'; \q
