In what format did you save your gnucash data?

Assuming you built gnucash with dbi support enabled, you may be missing dbi 
drivers for your data format.
If your file was not saved as xml, try installing package libdbd-sqlite3, 
libdbd-mysql or libdbd-postgresql depending on how you saved your data.
