Aha! There's my problem: I neglected to edit the Autochanger section's "Changer Command =" line to reflect my own server's directory structure.
It seems to be working now. There's no initial error message when I launch btape, and the autochanger test section has passed. I'm moving on to the multiple-tape fill test.
