You must set your servicesroot setting in your services.conf first, and make sure it is uncommented. (doesn't have a # at the beginning of the line)

exactly what it says.. in services.conf you need to set services root, a super user. its in the file as ServicesRoot   "MyNick"
You can have more then one (space separated). Reload, and register the root nick with Nickserv.

Ok, here's the real question.  Are you using Anope 1.8.0 or Anope 1.9.0?  The error message you posted is from 1.9.0, but the lines you pasted just now are from a 1.8.0 configuration file.  If you are trying to move from 1.8.0 to 1.9.0 (which I wouldn't recommend for a production network), you need to do the entire configuration from scratch, the format is not the same.

That article is very out of date.

As CBX said, if you intend on using 1.9 you will need to use a new config.
