500 ERROR occurs when attempting to access issue/issue tracker

[Matt Patera]

I am getting a 500 error on my site when I try to view a test issue I created or the issue tracker. It states that jirauser doesn't have privileges, but I went in and ensured that the user had everything detailed in the tutorial about setting up and connecting your database.
