Can't install Aegir

I am new to aegir and have some problems installing it. I use MySQL 5, Apache 2, Drush 4.6 and Provision 6.x-1.9.

When I install (with debug-mode on) I get this message:

Granting privileges to ubuntuaegir@localhost on ubuntuaegir             [notice]
Created ubuntuaegir database                                         [success]

But when I look in mysql there isn't a database called ubuntuaegir. Just the standard databases.

mysql> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database           |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql              |
| performance_schema |
+--------------------+
3 rows in set (0.05 sec)

This is the first error:

/var/aegir/hostmaster-6.x-1.9/sites/ubuntu-aegir/drushrc.php to 440

The external command could not be executed due to an application     [error]
error.

I also says:

query: SELECT * FROM menu_custom database.mysqli.inc:134

Following errors:

You can select another site with a working database setup by
specifying the URI to use with the --uri parameter on the command
line or $options['uri'] in your drushrc.php file.

The installation is done by the aegir user. The connection with MySQL is also with a special aegir user. Anyone an idea? Thanks!
