Connect to the database#

Connecting metasploit to a database in WSL is a bit troublesome. If you follow the normal procedure, you’ll get the error below.

1
msfconsole
2
>db_status
3
postgresql selected,no connect
4
>msfdb init
5
System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate.

The reason is that WSL doesn’t have systemd when it starts.

Solution#

Start the database service

1
msfdb init
2
sudo service postgresql start
3
sudo service postgresql status

Manually create the database user and database

1
#
2
cd /etc/postgresql/13/main
3
sudo -u postgres psql
4
alter user postgres password 'root';
5
create user msf with password 'metasploit' createdb;
6
create database msf with owner=msf;
7
quit

Connect in metasploit

1
msfconsole
2
#db_connect 数据库用户名:数据库密码@数据库ip[:数据库端口]/数据库名
3
db_connect msf:metasploit@127.0.0.1:5958/msf
4
db_status

Set up automatic connection

1
sudo nano /usr/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml

Change username and password inside to the ones you set.
