Hey,
I am trying to learn the basics of the Yii framework so I started with the blog tutorial.
This one: http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/blog/1.1/en
Only when I got to ‘Scaffolding’ I got a DB error when opening the model generator with the Yii code generator.
The error I got:
CDbException
CDbConnection.connectionString cannot be empty.
C:\wamp\www\yii\framework\gii\generators\model\ModelCode.php(60)
48 ));
49 }
50
51 public function requiredTemplates()
52 {
53 return array(
54 'model.php',
55 );
56 }
57
58 public function init()
59 {
60 if(Yii::app()->{$this->connectionId}===null)
61 throw new CHttpException(500,'A valid database connection is required to run this generator.');
62 $this->tablePrefix=Yii::app()->{$this->connectionId}->tablePrefix;
63 parent::init();
64 }
65
66 public function prepare()
67 {
68 if(($pos=strrpos($this->tableName,'.'))!==false)
69 {
70 $schema=substr($this->tableName,0,$pos);
71 $tableName=substr($this->tableName,$pos+1);
72 }

I saw an error like this before and it was solved by uncommenting the db connection but mine already is uncommented.
I’m using wamp btw.

Anyone got an idea?
