This is kind of a bug (or at least a DRY violation):

The migrate script for LoginEngine correctly deals with the  
config.active\_record.table\_name\_prefix configuration setting, but when  
it is used it is also necessary to specify the prefixed :user\_table name  
in the LoginEngine configuration. It would make sense for the  
LoginEngine configuration to utilise the table\_name\_prefix.

Cheers,  
Scott

Yup, you’re right - can you submit this as a new ticket on the Trac  
site?
