Steps To Reproduce

I have replicated this on a 32 VM and a 32 Bit full installation. I have used metasploit packages from the bleeding edge and the standard repos.

Unable to replicate. Also, we don't have bleeding edge metasploit packages. Can you provide better details?

Version of the metasploit package, commands used to invoke msfconsole, any changes to the OS other than use of stock packages - these would be a good start.

Version of metasploit package: metasploit_4.11.3-2015061001-1kali0_amd64.deb
Command to invoke: msfconsole (postgresql startet)

I only use the standard repositorys, no special modifications for the OS.

OS specs: Linux Kali-Linux 3.18.0-kali3-amd64 SMP Debian 3.18.6-1~kali2 (2015-03-02) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Edit: msfconsole.framework is a temporary solution!

I've just remembered, the only non stock package I've installed are the Discover scripts and I installed them on both machines exhibiting the problem.

Confirmed, thanks, this seems to be a regression in the latest msf package update.

Is there a hot fix for this as per now ? problem still persists even after upgrading rails 4.2 and ruby 2.2.2

I'm not sure why you upgraded ruby and rails, you've probably damaged your Kali installation beyond repair. There is still no resolution for this yet, although there seems to be an walkaround as mentioned above:

AFAIK this has been fixed through further updates already and is longer relevant for metasploit-framework on Kali 2 which uses the system wide ruby.
