Hello Jim,

I don't use databases very often - so I can't diagnose your problem very 
easily. If you send your actual traceback it might help.

No - you shouldn't need any of your 'build' directory in your final app. 
It is possible that your application uses extra files that aren't been 
included though... so a little detective work is needed. (and/or 
relative or absolute paths might be getting messed up).
