I corrupted my web2py -myql mapping and am trying to rebuild the web2py 
database files from scratch. 

Starting point: 

   - The mysql database tables already exist. Some tables were working 
   correctly under the old mapping, and some were never mapped.
   - I've already deleted everything from the databases folder.
   - I've already cleared everything from the db.py file except the 
   original code (auth tables, etc.)

Plan:


   - Set migrate=False, fake_migrate_all=True at the DAL connection level: 
   db = DAL('mysql://root:root@localhost/mydb', migrate=False,fake_migrate_all
   =True)
   - Re-add each table into the db.py file one by one, starting with a 
   fake_migrate and then going to real migrate into all the tables were 
   working.

Problem:


   - I can't get any table files generated for anything, even the auth 
   files. Setting fake_migrate_all=True doesn't generate any files, and 
   setting migrate=True gives me an error that the tables already exist. 


How do I get the table files to generate?
