I made a few changes but when I go to my db.cgi I get the following error "DBMan encountered an internal error. Please enable debugging to view"

To get you started change what you have for this section to:

$db_dir_url = "http://undergroundcards.us/cgi-bin/dbman";
$db_script_url = $db_dir_url . "/db.cgi";
$db_file_name = $db_script_path . "/default.db";
$db_id_file_name = $db_script_path . "/default.count";
$auth_dir = $db_script_path . "/auth";
$auth_pw_file = $db_script_path . "/default.pass";
$auth_log_file = $db_script_path . "/default.log";
require $db_script_path . "/html.pl";

On JPDeni's site there is a configurator which will help you set up your own fields once you get the default database up and running on your server.
