Is this a virtual hosted setup?

It's probably getting all it's users/skin etc from the main wiki-db, and
therefore the empty vhost is not listed in the Dashboard, etc. On top of
this, there's the additional surprise of the "global" users from the main
Wiki shadowing the "local" users of the local wiki, so perhaps you were able
to login using your "global" account?  (FYI, I don't think this is a good
feature of virtual-wikis and should be optional, and perhaps "off" by
default to prevent surprises).

In the case of http://testapplis.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Dashboard
It shows the following spaces created -- Spaces: Blog Sandbox Main -- but no
WebHome's for them, therefore no documents?

When I registered, it created a document that shows up in AllDocs
http://testapplis.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/NielsMayer
And when I created a document, it showed up in
http://testapplis.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SpaceIndex?space=Sandbox
Therefore I bet it's getting the Sandbox.Webhome from the main wiki.

If there was a pre-existing wiki behind this setup, perhaps you need to note
the installation document which mentions explicitly that you must name any
virtualwiki databases:

<div class="warningmessage"><span class="messagetype">Warning: </span>If you
