Cron looking for non-existant table

I am currently running Civicspace 0.8.4alpha2. When I run cron.php manually (http://www.example.com/cron.php on the browser address line), I get the following error:

user error: Table 'example_CRM.role' doesn't exist
query: SELECT DISTINCT FROM role r INNER JOIN permission p ON p.rid = r.rid INNER JOIN users_roles ur ON ur.rid = r.rid WHERE ur.uid = 0 in /home/example.com/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66

I have two databases; CRM is for Civicrm and CMS is for Civicspace. There is a role table in the CMS data base. Cron is looking for one in the CRM database. Should there be a role table in the Civicrm database as well as the Civicspace database?
