## Setting up

I defined an MDD, but tables are not created. I keep getting `java.sql.SQLException: Base table or view not found,...` when trying to use that makumba type in my pages.
Probably your webapp's DB config file (`<host>_<dbtype>_<dbname>.properties`) does not have

    alter#=true

Put it there, then reload your webapp. See SQL driver configuration properties for details.
