Hello,

Seems to me that you are missing some options here. Also, what kind of session do you have?

Quick question: did you add internal routes via the `autoroute` module?

Does the issue persist across lab resets?

Also, do you have the latest metasploit-framework update? v6.1.4 just dropped today.  
Try updating, and retry the payload.

Thank you for your response, I found out there something wrong with the new version from 6.1.2 to 6.1.4.  
I have downgrade the version to 6.0.34 and it worked fine.

Go to pimp my kali and downgrade again to version 5. A lot of exploits do not work properly on version 6
