EDIT: The installation guide for OSX El Capitan can be found here: http://hackerforhire.com.au/installing-metasploit-framework-on-os-x-el-capitan/
This Guide is adapted from Carlos Perez’s Blog (http://www.darkoperator.com/installing-metasploit-framewor/) (which is a must read) with some additions and fixes to make the setup work on OS X Yosemite. This post should help to alleviate some common issues with installing ruby and the Metasploit Framework on OS X. The main issues being that OS X ships with a newer version of Ruby that is not compatible with Metasploit and the version of libiconv installed with OS X causes issues installing the Nokogiri gem.
Xcode and Command Line Development Tools
The first step is to ensure that Software Update has been run and that OS X is updated. Once OS X has been updated, It is time to install Xcode.
Once Xcode has been installed launch Xcode from Applications and agree to the SDK License Agreement.
Install Xcode developer tools by typing:
xcode-select --install
Click Install in the dialog box that pops up and the package will be installed.
Java
Ensure that the latest versions of the Java 8 JRE and JDK are installed.

http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u40-b27/jre-8u40-macosx-x64.dmg
Homebrew
Install homebrew by running the following command:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Once Homebrew installs, run ‘brew doctor’ to finalize the installation of homebrew.
brew doctor
Once homebrew is installed and set up, the PATH needs to be updated to ensure that all homebrew binaries are executed correctly.
echo PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH >> ~/.bash_profile
Once this is done, load the new $PATH by sourcing it.
source ~/.bash_profile
From here we need to ensure that both versions and dupes are loaded into homebrew (We load in dupes for later, as a dependency for nokogiri is located in here.)
brew tap homebrew/versions
brew tap homebrew/dupes
Homebrew Installs
Before Metasploit can be installed, some more dependencies should be installed via homebrew.
Nmap
This can be installed either via the dmg from their site, or via homebrew. Homebrew tends to keep their packages updated and it is quite easy to install and manage.
brew install nmap
Install Ruby 2.1.5
Now time for the part the most frequently causes issues. Ruby 2.1.5 is recommended as seen in this file. Since Homebrew doesn’t have 2.1.5 as an option, we’re going to take whatever 2.1.x it can give us. At the time of writing this, the version pulled was 2.1.5 which works perfectly for us.
brew install homebrew/versions/ruby21
Now, the most important part of the ruby installation, Ensuring that the ruby version you are running is in fact 2.1.5.
ruby –v
Installing and configuring PostgreSQL
Now, time to install the backend database that Metasploit uses.
brew install postgresql --without-ossp-uuid
If the Homebrew install did NOT complete this for you, the next step is to initialize the database for first time usage.
initdb /usr/local/var/postgres
us
As of 9.3.5_1 it looks like the homebrew installer wraps up by running this command for you.
Ensure that postgreSQL is set to launch on boot by issuing the following:
mkdir -p ~/Library/LaunchAgents
cp /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.4.1/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
Start the PostgreSQL service:
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist
Create a new user msf* and a database msf with the user msf as the owner.
createuser msf -P -h localhost
createdb -O msf msf -h localhost
*Remember this password as it will be used when configuring Metasploit
Configuring VNCViewer
As Metasploit uses vncviewer for its VNC payloads, and OS X comes with a VNC client, we need to create the needed vncviewer file that will call the OS X vnc viewer.
echo '#!/usr/bin/env bash'>> /usr/local/bin/vncviewer
echo open vnc://\$1 >> /usr/local/bin/vncviewer
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/vncviewer
Installing Metasploit Framework
Installing the following gems needed for running the framework:
gem install pg sqlite3 msgpack activerecord redcarpet rspec simplecov yard bundler
Download the framework and prepare the directories:
cd /usr/local/share/
git clone https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework.git
cd metasploit-framework
for MSF in $(ls msf*); do ln -s /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/$MSF /usr/local/bin/$MSF;done
sudo chmod go+w /etc/profile
sudo echo export MSF_DATABASE_CONFIG=/usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml >> /etc/profile
Using brew and bundler the properly supported gems need to be installed.
bundle install
Now that the framework has been installed, and proper bundles installed. The database connection needs to be configured.
Save the following into /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml replace <password> with the msf user’s password you set earlier.
vi /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml
production:
adapter: postgresql
database: msf
username: msf
password: <password>
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 5432
pool: 75
timeout: 5
Now that this file has been created, source bash_profile to load the variables for the database.
source /etc/profile
source ~/.bash_profile
Now, to start Metasploit Framework as YOUR USER to it initializes the schema for the database for the first time as a NON ROOT user. Run this from within the /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework directory.
./msfconsole
Once the console loads, ensure that the database is connected by issuing:
msf> db_status
it should return:
[*] postgresql connected to msf
Install Armitage
Execute the following commands to prepare the environment and download armitage to the correct location:
brew install pidof
curl -# -o /tmp/armitage.tgz http://www.fastandeasyhacking.com/download/armitage-latest.tgz
tar -xvzf /tmp/armitage.tgz -C /usr/local/share
bash -c "echo \'/usr/bin/java\' -jar /usr/local/share/armitage/armitage.jar \$\*" > /usr/local/share/armitage/armitage
perl -pi -e 's/armitage.jar/\/usr\/local\/share\/armitage\/armitage.jar/g' /usr/local/share/armitage/teamserver
Lastly, create sym links for Armitage:
ln -s /usr/local/share/armitage/armitage /usr/local/bin/armitage
ln -s /usr/local/armitage/teamserver /usr/local/bin/teamserver
Due to the way variables are handled when using sudo, you will need to give the –E option.
sudo –E armitage
sudo –E msfconsole

Great guide, thanks very much.

Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.
Try navigate into the “metasploit-framework” folder and then run “bundle install” from within that folder.
It should install the bundles for you and then you can open “msfconsole”
As of 9.4.1 of PostgrSQL it has different instructions about configuring PostgrSQL to load on launch:
To have launchd start postgresql at login:
ln -sfv /usr/local/opt/postgresql/*.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
Then to load postgresql now:
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist
Or, if you don’t want/need launchctl, you can just run:
postgres -D /usr/local/var/postgres
Great guide!
I followed all instructions in details but something seems to be wrong with my installation. At a point I was told I had to upgrade ruby for somethings to work, which I did, and not all I get is this

It looks like you might be in the “metasploit-framework/tools” folder. Try rerunning it from the parent folder.
Try checking your ruby version
Try checking your ruby version (worked for me)
Thanks for the suggestion @norsec0de but “tools” is actually my username and not the folder name. If you look carefully you would see I’m actually running from “dev:metasploit-framework tools$”
Soz Ryan, didn’t notice that :P
It looks like it could be one of a few issues, try some of these to halp troubleshoot.
Firstly, try running ./msfconsole instead of msfconsole and see if that makes a difference.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that MSF now requires Ruby 2.1.x Try installing that version and see if it works. I’ll update the post to reflect this.
Last option could be conflicting or borked Ruby installs. Rub “which ruby” to see if the homebrew version is being run by default. also, check that RVM is not interfering. If possible, remove all version of Ruby, cleanup the $PATH and then jump back to the Ruby installation in the tutorial.
Let me know how you get on.
Cheers
norse
Thanks dude, your concern is very much appreciated. To be honest, while installing metasploit, I had actually gove for the 2.1.5 ruby version, and when I started encountering these problems I did think it was a s a result of my ruby version, and as such I uninstalled 2.1 and reverted to 1.9.3.
After your recent comment, I had uninstalled all versions of ruby, and re-installed versions 2.1.5 and 2.2, but default is tied to 2.1.5. After that, I had done the bundle install, and tried to run msfconsole in both ways (msfconsole and ./msfconsole) now this is what I have

Thanks in advance.
I’ve just re-installed about to go through this same procedure. I’ll do all the troubleshooting in the morning and see what turns up.
Watch this space :)
Aight, re-rolled last night and updated the blog post as of this morning. The prob you’re having might have been with that custom Gem installation options.
Try again with this guide. Worked well for me. Let me know how you get on.
Cheers
Thanks man, I would equally try do a re-run and get back with result results.
I had gone through with the entire process again, even had to uninstall my previously installed Homebrew and Ruby just so I could do a clean install, but somehow I managed to lad in the same ditch as before.
Is there some way I could do totally reversal of the entire process or possibly get some remote help? I’m sorry if i’m asking too much, its probably cos I’m not as grounded as you guys. Right now, I’m stuck and lost for options.
From my observations, the errors all started from here;

This prevents bundler from installing bins or native extensions, but that may not affect its functionality.
The validation message from Rubygems was:

Using metasploit-frame
That basically sums up the problems I’m facing, I hope I can somehow get help to get it resolved.
Thanks in advance.
Yea, you have a ton of errors in there but nothing that looks too hard to fix. The errors actually tell you how to fix the problems and you should definitely sort them out before re-installing.
The first set of errors after ‘brew doctor’ are:
“/usr/local/share/man/*” is not owned by you. To fix this you’ll need to run “chown” and take ownership of the folders as yourself. The command would look something like this “sudo chown -vR all3n /usr/local/share/man”
If you’re not familiar with file ownership, read more about it here: http://www.maclife.com/article/columns/terminal_101_changing_file_owner_chown
Warning: Broken symlinks were found. Remove them with `brew prune`: /usr/local/bin/msf* < -- Run "brew prune" :P Warning: Your XQuartz (2.7.6) is outdated Please install XQuartz 2.7.7: https://xquartz.macosforge.org
^^^ Install updated XQuartz
Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar
Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause brews that depend on
those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run `brew link` on these:
nmap
^^^ Sounds like you need to run “brew link nmap”
Warning: Your Homebrew is outdated.
You haven’t updated for at least 24 hours. This is a long time in brewland!
To update Homebrew, run `brew update`. < --- Ruby Part That should clear up the brew probs. The next problem I noticed is that you've got "Ruby Version Manager" (RVM) installed and it can cause problems with the gems. Make sure you remove all traces of RVM before re-installing brew. This might help: https://gauravsohoni.wordpress.com/2014/01/01/rvm-implode-and-rvm-install/
After RVM is gone and you’re reinstalled Ruby via Homebrew, then make sure that the $PATH is set to use the version of Ruby installed by brew. Remember, you’ll have “/usr/local/bin/ruby” installed with the Mac and the brew one installed in “/usr/local/Cellar/ruby21/2.1.5/bin”
You can quickly see which one is being run by running the command “which ruby” and the output will show you which one is being executed. If it’s the “/usr/local/bin/ruby” then you’re running the wrong one.
To fix that, edit the “~/.bash_profile” and add the Cellar location to the front of the $PATH variable:
PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/ruby21/2.1.5/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
Close all your Terminal windows and reopen, navigate to the “/usr/local/share/metasploit-framework” folder and run “ruby -v”
If the output is not “ruby 2.1.5p273 (2014-11-13 revision 48405) [x86_64-darwin14.0]” then the rest of the installation will fail.
Hope this gets on the right track dude.
Cheers

I’m stuck at the part after all the framework has been installed. I enter “vi /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml” like you said as the next step. After which it says:
E325: ATTENTION

If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two
different instances of the same file when making changes.
Quit, or continue with caution.
(2) An edit session for this file crashed.
If this is the case, use “:recover” or “vim -r /usr/local/share/metasploit-f
ramework/config/database.yml”
to recover the changes (see “:help recovery”).
If you did this already, delete the swap file “/usr/local/share/metasploit-f

to avoid this message.

“/usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml” [New File]
Please walk me through how I should proceed. I’m a beginner in all senses of the word at this.
Ah yea, that damn swap file.
To remove it, run “rm /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/.database.yml.swp” and that should kill it.
If you’re unfamiliar with how vim works, try using something like “nano /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/config/database.yml” Paste the info into the file, Ctrl + O to Save and Ctrl + X to exit.
HI Folks,

An error occurred while installing nokogiri (1.6.6.2), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install nokogiri -v ‘1.6.6.2’` succeeds before bundling.
Try this:
brew install libxml2
then retry nokogiri install.
If still fails, I found this which might help:
sudo env ARCHFLAGS=”-arch x86_64″ gem install nokogiri:1.6.6.2 — –use-system-libraries –with-xml=/usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/

Installation went fine however when launching armitage i get the following message:
org.msgpack.UnpackException: parse error
Armitage won’t start. MSF works fine.
Edit /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/Gemfile.lock with your favorite text editor where it says: GEM
remote: https://rubygems.org/
specs: msgpack (0.6.0)
To say: msgpack (0.5.12)
save
then:
cd /usr/local/share/metasploit-framework/
bundle install
after that
sudo -E armitage
this is not a solution, but a workaround. you need to do this everytime after a msfupdate
Great guide! Worked flawlessly for me and using Ruby ruby 2.1.6p336… Thanks!
