So I did find a workaround. However, I've switched over to PythonAnywhere,
much more seamless to my workflow for Python projects.
The workaround, if I recall correctly, was that I had to use a one-off
dynamo to connect to the DB, and manually created the necessary tables
based on the Web2Py source code. The most important being the "filesystem"
table. I don't remember exactly what I did, as it was a while ago.
