If you use Backtrack 5 r3, maybe you will find some trouble in Beef Framework when you run it. It won't work by default because it requires some works. The ruby gems need to be properly installed before before you can install and run this framework.
To install the ruby gems required, try this statements on the command line:
First, you must go to the beef directory
- cd /pentest/web/beef
- gem install --user-install bundler
- bundle install
When it's finished,
Just Open the beef installer that located in menu Backtrack -> Exploitation Tools -> Social Engineering Tools -> Beef XSS Framework -> Beef Installer
Then Just wait the process.
If the process has finished, try to open Beef again and it should be run normally.
