MJ Ray, It appears that your solution was the answer to my problem. It was file permissions. If we ever meet. I will buy you a beer.

[...] The problem is the user www-data is NOT given a password for MySql and it is trying to connect without one and is being refused.
Check the permissions on /etc/koha.conf - the user running the CGI scripts (www-data) can't read it, so it doesn't know the koha username or password. IIRC, you probably want it to be -rw-r----- root www-data (chgrp www-data /etc/koha.conf ; chmod 640 /etc/koha.conf) unless you are running apache suExec or similar.
