Multiple Queries not Running in FMDB

I'm using FMDB to create a SQLite database on iPhone. I have a initial.sql that is of the form

CREATE TABLE Abc ... ;
CREATE TABLE Def ... ;

I load this by loading the file into an NSString and running it

NSString * str = // string from file initial.sql

[db executeUpdate: str];

This succeeds but later on I get a failure:

no such table: Def

It's clear that the second statement is not being called. How can I do this so that all of the queries will be called?

According to the SQLite documentation: "The routines sqlite3_prepare_v2(), sqlite3_prepare(), sqlite3_prepare16(), sqlite3_prepare16_v2(), sqlite3_exec(), and sqlite3_get_table() accept an SQL statement list (sql-stmt-list) which is a semicolon-separated list of statements."

So, this should all work.
