... and I think I have maybe found the problem or at least some of it.

After a clean installation if I run 'pyblosxom-cmd create <dir>' in
the installed pyblosxom directory (i.e. the directory where there is a
data directory and the Pyblosxom directory) then the create works, but
if I run it anywhere els it fails with the error I reported.
