>From looking at the code this error can mean quite a few things:
- you set $projectroot incorrectly
- you set $projects_list incorrectly
- you set $export_ok to something != "" and didn't create
the necessary files
- your repositories lack HEAD refs (don't know how this could happen,
though)
More diagnosis is difficult without knowing your exact setup.

gitweb_conf.perl is just included as perl code. It is primarly useful
for overriding the variables defined at the top of gitweb.cgi
