body: This means your Bitbucket server cannot connect to the database you have configured it to use. It could be that the database is not set up correctly, but the messages you are having suggest that it's more likely to be that the database simply isn't letting you into it. The messages say something is coming back from it, but "communications link failure" says that the responses are not a lot more than "I'm configured not to talk to you"
