The error you get is because the database adaptator (provider) that
you use does support table creation. Table creation, deletion, ... has
been added (and is implemented by the Postgres, MySQL and SQLite
providers with others to follow) to libgda version >= 1.9.103 or CVS
version (this version is a beta version of the next stable versions).

I suggest that you use this version and not the current and obsolete version.
