MediaWiki MySQL database error

Problems

Installed MediaWiki. All seemed to go OK until I tried to use it. If I edit a page and create a link to a non existent page and then click on the link I get the following error

Database error
From Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
(SQL query hidden)
from within function "IndexPager::reallyDoQuery (LogPager)". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'wikidb.tag_summary' doesn't exist (localhost)".

I also get this error on some of the help pages.

Any thoughts?
