This is all covered pretty well in the mailing list archives.  Most likely
it can't connect to the db.

You need to find out if your database uses tcp/ip socket connections, or unix
sockets.  Then configure the above prefs array correctly for that case.  You
may also need to check database permissions (can it connect from the needed
IP address is tcp/ip connections, is the username/password right, etc).

I'd give a more complete answer if I had time, but rest assured there are
more complete answers in the archives.
