I am having this problem as well. OS 0.7.1 Dev won't even attempt to 
load unless these two sections:

[SimulationDataStore]
      LocalServiceModule = 
"OpenSim.Services.Connectors.dll:SimulationDataService"

[EstateDataStore]
      LocalServiceModule = 
"OpenSim.Services.Connectors.dll:EstateDataService"

exist somewhere (I put them at the very end of the files) in both 
StandaloneCommon.ini (in /bin/config-include) and also OpenSim.ini (in 
/bin) and then it would load part way, and terminate with this error: 
"02:23:24 - [FRIENDS]: No Connector defined in section Friends, or 
failed to load, cannot continue". I checked the friends section of 
OpenSim.ini; it seems to be configured correctly and the friends dll 
file exists.

If I put this section in OpenSim.ini:

[Friends]
     ; The port the friendslist interregion comms will listen on
     ; Defaults to the simulator's TCP port
     ;Port = 0

     ; Uncomment one of the lines below. Use FriendsService for local
     ; operation, Connectors for remote operation
      Connector = "OpenSim.Services.FriendsService.dll"
     ;Connector = "OpenSim.Services.Connectors.dll"

I end up with this error
