Looks like a failure to connect to the database. IIRC there was a bug
in the install script that failed to set up the user account at least
under some circumstances... Change lines 196-197 in Database.php to:
function lastErrno() { return mysql_errno(); }
function lastError() { return mysql_error(); }
(remove the "$this->mConn" from each line). It ought now to give out a
more useful error message.
