are you sure the user pootle is running the server? usually you need to
grant permission to the apache user and group (under debian it is
www-data)

I only used packaged versions of mod_wsgi but it doesn't sound like a
build problem

doubt it, it is either the path for the db file, permissions or maybe
the db file is corrupt

Pootle triggers the installer when no database file exists (or when
certain tables are missing), there is no straight forward way to
distinguish between missing database file and failure to open the
database file. so the installer is triggered and then fails.

no idea :-(
