This error normally indicates that something went wrong with the osm2pgsql
import part. The table planet_osm_rels is missing the entries about your 
boundary relation.

Could you please confirm that you indeed used the osm2pgsql version
provided in the osm2pgsql subdirectory? If you updated your Nominatim 
you might still have an old entry in your settings/local.php that 
points to a different, older version of osm2pgsql.
