[Koha] Installer not creating database tables

[Chris Alfano]

Hi Everyone,

I just setup Koha on a Gentoo machine running Apache 2.2.10 / mod_perl
2.0.3-r2 / Perl 5.8.8-r5 / MySQL 5.0 plus all the CPAN modules reported by
Makefile.PL

When I access the intranet URL to finish the setup, I am redirected to the
install script and see:

The installer is not creating any tables in the MySQL database. I used all
default values for Makefile.PL except for the DB specifics and have
confirmed the configuration by copying and pasting the DB values from
/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml into the command line mysql client and was able to
create and manipulate tables just fine. The fact that I am seeing table
doesn't exist errors instead of access denied tells me that it is connecting
to MySQL alright.

Where could I begin trying to debug this? Can I disable the error message
suppression?

Thanks to anyone who can offer some insight.

Here is my intranet vhost configuration:
