If you read this post then I bet you have the same problem with me. When I tried to run the msfconsole on my BT5 I have this buggy information.
[-] Failed to connect to the database: could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 7175?
Seems that the MSF could not connect to Postgres database server. I tried to install the Postgres server inside my BT5 and still have no luck. So I starting to search over the internet and found the solution for this problem. Here are the solution.
rm /opt/framework3/postgresql/data/postmaster.pid rm /opt/framework3/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.7175 rm /opt/framework3/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.7175.lock /etc/init.d/framework-postgres start
Then, try to run the msfconsole again.

It will create the databases structure. Again run the msfconsole once again to make sure that it connect to the database correctly
