When I issued the command I was in the first wiki20 directory (where the wiki20-start.py is located) and the quickstart command created both prod.cfg and dev.cfg. How does it know whether to use one or the other? It looked to me (without examining the code) as if it defaulted to prod.cfg.
Strangely enough, I just reexecuted the same "tg-admin sql create" command I had invoked initially, i.e., without the -c dev.cfg, and wonder of wonders, it worked, completely! Examining the PostgreSQL database showed the 'page' table had been created, as well as the associated sequence. My only explanation for the sudden "change of heart" is that I rebooted the machine overnight (and I also installed psycopg1) and whatever was wrong got fixed (but now we can only speculate as to what that was). > > I traced the execution path and it seems that TG command/__init__ > > tacks > > on the dburi with a -c to the argv passed to sqlobject.manager's > > command.

After reading the .cfg file it creates a "command line" to pass to sqlobject.manager. In that context, the -c is short for --connection and the dburi is passed as argument to that option.
