Looking for ideas...

I am having a difficult time getting open ERP to connect to PostgreSQL on my Mac Devbox. Running the 8.0 Trunk off Git. 

• There are super users in Postgresql
• I have edited both the .Openerp-serverrc and openerp-server.conf files with matching db passwords/users to postgresql
• Tried running the odoo server under different accounts

I get the 500 internal server error on the webpage and this in terminal.

ideas?
