说在前面的话
1、在kali中metasploit默认使用postgresql作为它的数据库；
想要开启metasploit服务首先得打开postgresql数据库，
命令如下：（或者：/etc/init.d/postgresql start）;
因为在kali中所有的服务都不是默认开机自启的，
所以想要开机自启，命令如下：update-rc.d postgresql enable。
2、初次使用数据库服务时需初始化，以便创建系统默认的数据库及数据库用户；
命令如下：msfdb init（默认创建的数据库名：msf，msf_test;用户名：msf；口令默认为空）
3、接下来就是启动metasploit的时候了；
在kali2.0之后，只需启动msf控制台即可；
命令如下：msfconsole。
（kali2.0之前的命令是这样的：service metasploit start；对于2.0之后不管用）
问题详情
msf > db_status [*] postgresql selected, no connection msf >
运行 service Metasploit start 无任何反应，提醒报错：
Failed to start metasploit.service: Unit metasploit.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
解决办法
对于命令解释
msfdb init # initialize the database
msfdb reinit # delete and reinitialize the database
msfdb delete # delete database and stop using it
msfdb start # start the database
msfdb stop # stop the database
root@kali:~# msfdb reinit Creating database user 'msf' 为新角色输入的口令: 再输入一遍: Creating databases 'msf' and 'msf_test' Creating configuration file in /usr/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml Creating initial database schema root@kali:~# msfdb start root@kali:~# msfconsole .~+P``````-o+:. -o+:. .+oooyysyyssyyssyddh++os-````` ``````````````` ` +++++++++++++++++++++++sydhyoyso/:.````...`...-///::+ohhyosyyosyy/+om++:ooo///o ++++///////~~~~///////++++++++++++++++ooyysoyysosso+++++++++++++++++++///oossosy --.` .-.-...-////+++++++++++++++////////~~//////++++++++++++/// `...............` `...-/////...` .::::::::::-. .::::::- .hmMMMMMMMMMMNddds...//M\.../hddddmMMMMMMNo :Nm-/NMMMMMMMMMMMMM$$NMMMMm&&MMMMMMMMMMMMMMy .sm/`-yMMMMMMMMMMMM$$MMMMMN&&MMMMMMMMMMMMMh` -Nd` :MMMMMMMMMMM$$MMMMMN&&MMMMMMMMMMMMh` -Nh` .yMMMMMMMMMM$$MMMMMN&&MMMMMMMMMMMm/ `oo/``-hd: `` .sNd :MMMMMMMMMM$$MMMMMN&&MMMMMMMMMMm/ .yNmMMh//+syysso-`````` -mh` :MMMMMMMMMM$$MMMMMN&&MMMMMMMMMMd .shMMMMN//dmNMMMMMMMMMMMMs` `:```-o++++oooo+:/ooooo+:+o+++oooo++/ `///omh//dMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMN/:::::/+ooso--/ydh//+s+/ossssso:--syN///os: /MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMd. `/++-.-yy/...osydh/-+oo:-`o//...oyodh+ -hMMmssddd+:dMMmNMMh. `.-=mmk.//^^^\.^^`:++:^^o://^^^\`:: .sMMmo. -dMd--:mN/` ||--X--|| ||--X--|| ........../yddy/:...+hmo-...hdd:............\=v=//............\=v=//......... ================================================================================ =====================+--------------------------------+========================= =====================| Session one died of dysentery. |========================= =====================+--------------------------------+========================= ================================================================================ Press ENTER to size up the situation %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Date: April 25, 1848 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Weather: It's always cool in the lab %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Health: Overweight %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Caffeine: 12975 mg %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Hacked: All the things %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Press SPACE BAR to continue Validate lots of vulnerabilities to demonstrate exposure with Metasploit Pro -- Learn more on http://rapid7.com/metasploit =[ metasploit v4.12.41-dev ] + -- --=[ 1597 exploits - 912 auxiliary - 274 post ] + -- --=[ 458 payloads - 39 encoders - 8 nops ] + -- --=[ Free Metasploit Pro trial: http://r-7.co/trymsp ] msf > db_status [*] postgresql connected to msf msf >
