You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the option -A, or
--auth-local and --auth-host, the next time you run initdb.

Success. You can now start the database server using:

pg_ctl -D /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/var/lib/postgresql -l logfile start

edit c:\metasploit-framework\embedded\framework\msfdb

In the 'run_cmd' function, comment out the 'err = stderr.read' and 'out = stdout.read' calls like this:

def run_cmd(cmd)
  exitstatus = 0

  err = out = ""
  Open3.popen3(cmd) do |stdin, stdout, stderr, wait_thr|
    #err = stderr.read
    #out = stdout.read
    exitstatus = wait_thr.value.exitstatus
  end

Just tested and that fixes it. Thanks.
