 * Try removing the dot in your database name. Change it to something like `make-
   inn_wp_` and then re-run the install routine and see of that makes any difference.
 * **[EDIT]**
 * I’m sorry, I said database name, but it’s the database prefix I was referring
   to in your wp-config.php file, not your actual database name.

 * I’ve had this issue before, you need to make sure that the database prefix in
   the wp-config.php matches the actual prefix of your tables in wordpress. If they
   do not match the easiest thing is to modify your wp-config.php rather than change
   the database.
