Handle incorrect BigBlueButton field better #70

Either disable the video calling part of the app or display a custom BBB error page.

I believe we currently handle all cases except where BIGBLUEBUTTON_URL is unset, which causes requests to throw an error. Isn't it better for this to fail loudly and obviously when the config is wrong?

The error message is quite unfriendly not indicative of the problem. I think we should still throw an uncaught exception but give it a better name and description.
