今天做了一下msf连接数据库的配置，中间碰到了一些坑点这里就不详细叙述了，开始正确的操作方式。
首先对postgresql进行配置以方便连接。
root@kali:~# service postgresql start #启动数据库 root@kali:~# su postgres #设置用户与数据库 postgres@kali:/root$ createuser msf -P Enter password for new role: Enter it again: postgres@kali:/root$ createdb --owner=msf4 msf postgres@kali:/root$ exit exit root@kali:~# root@kali:~# msfconsole #测试数据库连接状态 ### ### msf > db_connect msf:password@localhost/msf [*] Rebuilding the module cache in the background... msf > db_status [*] postgresql connected to msf msf > search 2015-0531 [!] Module database cache not built yet, using slow search #这里要稍等一下才会正常，可以考虑关闭应用重启一下 msf > exit
自动连接可以通过配置文件 /usr/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml 完成，内容可以通过复制database.yml.example并修改内容来完成设置。
root@kali:/usr/share/metasploit-framework/config# cp database.yml.example database.yml root@kali:/usr/share/metasploit-framework/config# vi database.yml root@kali:/usr/share/metasploit-framework/config# cat database.yml # Please only use postgresql bound to a TCP port. # Only postgresql is supportable for metasploit-framework # these days. (No SQLite, no MySQL). # # To set up a metasploit database, follow the directions hosted at: # http://r-7.co/MSF-DEV#set-up-postgresql development: &pgsql adapter: postgresql database: msf #修改这里 username: msf #这里 password: password #还有这里 host: localhost port: 5432 pool: 5 #这里看心情 timeout: 5 # You will often want to seperate your databases between dev # mode and prod mode. Absent a production db, though, defaulting # to dev is pretty sensible for many developer-users. production: &production <<: *pgsql # Warning: The database defined as "test" will be erased and # re-generated from your development database when you run "rake". # Do not set this db to the same as development or production. # # Note also, sqlite3 is totally unsupported by Metasploit now. test: <<: *pgsql database: metasploit_framework_test username: metasploit_framework_test password: ___________________________
最后如重新启动msf就可以了，当然还可以在配置下数据库自动开启
root@kali:~# systemctl start postgresql
root@kali:~# systemctl enable postgresql
root@kali:~# msfconsole #进入msf看效果
