http://www.review-board.org/docs/manual/dev/admin/sites/creating-sites/#creatingsites

Describe the problem and any recommendations below.
On Ubuntu 9.04, using apache2 and mod_python, the permissions to the
database need to be set correctly in order to get Ubuntu to work. You need
to issue the following command, or you will get an error 404 when going to
the review board site, and an error 500 when attempting to log in.

"chown -R www-data /var/www/reviews.example.com/db"

Please provide any additional information below.

rb-site itself tells you that you must do this. Not a very high priority. Given the
other work on my plate, I'm going to push it out.

Pushing these out, since they won't happen for 1.5.x. The focus is on getting 1.6 out right now.

Review Board itself now does this check and tells you to fix it. And rb-site tells you to do it. So I think we're in good shape now.
