Connection issue with full draft board

Hello, is there a setting that is required on my host that allows the Full Draft Board to work? When I click on it all my pc's say "There was a connection issue while attempting to gather new picks - if the issue persists please contact your administrator". Other than this feature everything seems to be working.
So that message comes up when there was an error thrown by the server on the AJAX call - the call that checks to get new picks (as the message indicates). Something else is afoot here. Would you mind posting the URL for your draft board if it's up on your hosting - so I can take a quick look?
I did a fresh install locally and did not get any issues with the draft board.
If you're not comfortable with posting that address, you can email it to me. My email is in this format (use my name, obviously): first_name.last_name@gmail.com

thecomputerbusiness helped me find the issue in the draft board.
In services/player_service.php, on line 599 this line:
SELECT p.*, m.manager_name FROM players P
needs to be changed to:
SELECT p.*, m.manager_name FROM players p
(the alias for the players table should not be capitalized)
It's only an error if your server is UNIX based. If it's Windows/Mac, you won't hit a snag here.
I'll push an update out tonight when I have time, but if you're in a bind without a working draft board please use the above fix for now.
Another helpful user just notified me that this change has not made it's way to the files page here on SourceForge! The code as it stands in Bitbucket is fixed, but I never took the time to make a proper release and update it here on SourceForge. So please, use this code above to fix yours if you're running into this, or I will push an updated release ZIP later today. Thanks everyone!!
