Hi! Really sorry for the delay in responding. It looks like you are using the omnibus installer. Is that the case? What operating system are you using?

You might be able to get past this by manually creating the directory it complains about, e.g.:

mkdir -p ~/.msf4/logs/

[bcook-r7]

This is because your .msf4/database.yml file is inadvertently owned by a user that is not you. Possibly because you may have initially run metasploit as root initially.

Try chown -R `whoami` ~/.msf4

Thanks!

@bcook-r7 worked for me thanks man.

[Alexandre-ux]

Isso ocorre porque o arquivo .msf4 / database.yml pertence inadvertidamente a um usuário que não é você. Possivelmente porque você pode ter executado inicialmente o metasploit como root inicialmente.

Experimentar chown -R `whoami` ~/.msf4

Obrigado!
