There's no validation for the ini file. The 'Fundamental part of
OpenInteract...' error in pre 1.37 versions used to point to a database
misconfiguration error. In 1.37 I changed the Apache handler
(OpenInteract.pm) to first check whether it could connect to the
database. If not, it should report that error rather than the themes
error.

One thing to check: see whether removing 'SPOPS::Secure' from the
'theme' key in base_theme-x.xx/conf/spops.perl (then restarting the
server) makes things work. If so, then there's something fishy about
fetching information from the security table for the theme.
