I've done all that the documentation says on the Farmer extension, and yet I still run into database issues. All the special pages work fine (including the main page and the admin pages), but whenever I try to create a test wiki, this happens...

Database error

A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: (SQL query hidden) from within function "Article::insertOn". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'a8889767_newiki2.test_-_page' doesn't exist (localhost)"

Yes, the weird database name (a8889767_newiki2) was forced upon me by free hosting. However, when I look at the database creation code (in MediaWikiFarmer_Wiki.php, found http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Farmer/MediaWikiF... here on line 118 , there is a stipend that checks to see if the database about to be created exists yet. Could this be causing the SQL server to throw an exception before anything happens?
