Answer 1

I had the same issue: #1146 - Table 'tutsplus_ci.posts' doesn't exist. I solved this issue following these steps:

I made an export of the incriminated table in a sql file. I noticed that the table name in the .sql file has a suplemental trailing space. I switch back to phpmyadmin in Operations section of my table and I rename the table from ' posts' to 'posts'. After taken all these actions the error didn't show up.

To conclude, indeed the table 'posts' didn't exist as error message said. Because the the actual name of the table was ' posts' not 'posts'. The space before the name is hard to be notice in phpmyadmin. This is the story. Nothing special. I hope it helps!
