When you do "for x in db", that will iterate of the Table objects attached to db. The Table objects are just models defined in your model files -- they do not necessarily have to correspond to actual tables in your database. The tables you listed are Auth tables that would be defined via auth.define_tables(). If you have migrations turned off (or the database is not writable), then defining those tables in the model will not result in them actually being created in the database.
Regarding the existing tables in the database, do you have models in your app defining them?
