Metasploit-framework: When I am running msfconsole it is showing "Could not find io-console-0.5.6 in any of the sources"

[FaizanNehal]

I was using a vnc auxiliary module when my metasploit suddenly stopped and it exited. Now when I am running msfconsole it is howing the following error message
Could not find io-console-0.5.6 in any of the sources Run bundle install to install missing gems.
When I am trying to run 'bundle install' it is showing the following error meassage
Could not locate Gemfile

I have googled alot then found out that I have to open metasploit-framework directory to run this command. so I went into the directory and then executed this command, but it is showing the following error message.

faizan@10:/usr/share/metasploit-framework$ bundle install There was an error while trying to write to /usr/share/metasploit-framework/.bundle/config. It is likely that you need to grant write permissions for that path.

I am stretching my head for hours now, what could have gone wrong. Please help me

chmod on the config file is also not working and showing an error message.

bundle install needs to be executed from within the metasploit-framwork directory. It also requires elevated privileges.

sudo bundle install

Also, it looks like you're using the Metasploit package on Kali, in which case there is possibly an issue with the package as distributed by Kali.

You can also try:

sudo gem install io-console

bundle install needs to be executed from within the metasploit-framwork directory. It also requires elevated privileges.

sudo bundle install

Yes I was also trying it but it was saying that this would break the application for non-root users. Should I execute it? it is safe

I had the same issue but it worked out for me by downloading the rubylib in the metasploit-framework dir

apt-get install libruby2.7
