Hi Bruno, Thanks so much, deleting the files in the database folder fixed this problem. Is it normal that those files would have been copied over between systems or was it a botch somewhere?

The user has rights (using the root user).. still no luck. I've turned on query logging in mysql, the app queries are all working as expected but it won't create the model.

I have finally got to the point where I wanted to test the packing of my app to test the install on another system. However when I load the app into web2py on the new system the database is never created. I've even gone so far as to use the root mysql database user to see where any possible issues could arise.. I can't see any errors except a ticket which says.. ProgrammingError: (1146, u"Table 'app03.auth_user' doesn't exist") I loaded the app via the administrative interface over the loopback.. The sqllog has nothing interesting it.. I've restarted mysql, apache, the management interface with no success. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
