When I try to run 'db_status' I get the following error: However, if I click on Applications > Kali Linux > Top 10 Security Tools > Metasploit Framework.then metasploit launches. Starting PostgreSQL 9.1 database server: service metasploit start When I type try to start the service, Kali says metasploit does not service postgresql start Or, make a script and put it in /etc/init.d

Has anyone had this problem?This has been answered elsewhere but with Kali, many of the services that started on login with Backtrack 5 no longer start automatically. But if you're in metasploit and run the msfpro you will see new updates. Other thing also when you do the msfupdate it doesn't pick up any updates.

Well just ran the update for Kali and notice there was an update for 94.6 mb.
