Looks like by default, auth.signature gets defined when Auth is initialized, which is before you have set the custom table names. To avoid this do:
auth = Auth(db, signature=False) In that case, auth.signature will instead be defined when you call auth.define_tables(), by which point the custom tables names will already be set.
