If you're getting this message, the the hub is unable to connect to the 
database (and hence nothing is going to work). Looking at the httpd 
error logs might provide a clue as to why. Most likely candidates:
  - postgres not running
  - bad/missing db config in hub.conf
  - postgres not configured to accept the authentication provided by kojihub
  - DBHost specified in hub.conf, but postgres not configured to accept 
tcp connections.
  - network/firewall issues (if db is running elsewhere)
