The error is very unclear. Especially on a freshly installed system,
you wouldn't expect errors.
A previous bug report claims that the error text in all DB errors from
exim is bogus, because it uses errno but that isn't correctly set by the
database functions. The code that calls those database functions tries
to set errno, which I think ought to work even if errno is a macro (as
it's allowed to be, and will be in many cases on linux), so I'm not sure
why it wouldn't work.
But assuming it doesn't work, you should ignore that text, and look to
see if there is any other reason why opening the database doesn't work -
it not existing seems likely in your case! As you'll now have been
running exim for a while (sorry I didn't respond to your report sooner),
you probably have databases there by now - have the errors gone away?
