My koha.conf is still in /etc/koha.conf
I see in Context.pm that there is
	"use constant CONFIG_FNAME => "/etc/koha.conf";
so that should be fine.
The koha directory is under a /home/rsnsw/ user.

I can see though that /etc/koha.conf wasn't readable by the user rsnsw 
so I have changed for now the permissions of koha.conf to be readable 
(it's not a production system yet).
I no longer get the DBI connect error. I get:
Can't locate object method 'config' via package C4::Context at Output.pm 
line 78. I can see that config is a defined method in Context.pm and 
there is a 'use Context;' in Output.pm so it should have found it.

The error is prob something else unrelated.
I'd best get some real work done and get back to looking at this later 
:-) Any ideas in the meantime appreciated.
