Citrix 4.5 access database problem

I have just upgraded my citrix server from version 4.0 to 4.5. The upgrade seemed to complete successfully however when I run discovery I get the following message:

This user account is not an administrator of this farm, or there was a problem contacting the data store. Check that the data store server for the Citrix Presentation Server farm is online, and verify that your account is configured and enabled as an administrator on the farm.

It seems that I cannot now connect to the access datastore.

When I go to a command prompt and do a dsmaint config to point to the database I get a "failed to connect to the datastore" message.

Something has clearly happened to the datastore but i don't know how to correct the issue.

I recreated the local host cache but that did not alter the problem.

I have verified that all citrix services are started and I have re-run Discovery but with any improvement.

The DSCHECK tells me that it can't read package info from the data store.

I downloaded and ran Slim Jim but if I then run DSMAINT CONFIG I still get a "failed to connect to the data store" message.
