Do you get an

[*] msfupdate[*] Attempting to update the Metasploit Framework...[*]
svn: /opt/metasploit/common/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8: no version information available (required by /opt/metasploit/common/lib/libserf-0.so.0)
svn: /opt/metasploit/common/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: no version information available (required by /opt/metasploit/common/lib/libserf-0.so.0)

svn: /opt/metasploit/common/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: no version information available (required by /opt/metasploit/common/lib/libserf-0.so.0)

error ?

hears the FIX


cd /opt/metasploit/common/lib

mv libcrypto.so.0.9.8 libcrypto.so.0.9.8-b

mv libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.0.9.8-backup

ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8

msfupdate

I originally had this error with Metasploit so I used this fix. Now a new error appeared:

svn: In directory 'lib/gemcache/ruby/1.9.1/gems/activerecord-3.2.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters'
svn: Error processing command 'modify-wcprop' in 'lib/gemcache/ruby/1.9.1/gems/activerecord-3.2.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters'
svn: 'lib/gemcache/ruby/1.9.1/gems/activerecord-3.2.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/column.rb' is not under version control
svn: Working copy '.' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)

How can I fix this?

I'm new to backtrack but below given steps solved my metasploit update problem:
1. Open Terminal
2. Type cd /opt/metasploit/msf3/
3.Type msfupdate and hit enter

Hope this will solve your problem............

Fix worked for me as well. But anyway previously I always updated this way:
first
cd /opt/metasploit/msf3
and then
svn update

[strander156]

Even though msfupdate worked with those error message, this fixed it, thanks!
