Hello,

I’m reading the yii book and I’m stuck in the chapter 8.

I’m getting an error when I try to run a rbac script.

this is the error.

exception 'CDbException' with message 'CDbConnection failed to open the DB connection: could not find driver' in /Users/adrian/Sites/yiiRoot/framework/db/CDbConnection.php:382

I’m using Yii 1.10 version. I use MAMP as well.

This is my code on config/main.php config/console.php




                'db'=>array(

			'class' => 'CDbConnection',

			'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=trackstar_dev;',

			'emulatePrepare' => true,

			'username' => 'root',

			'password' => 'root',

			'charset' => 'utf8',

		),

		'authManager'=>array(

			'class'=>'CDbAuthManager',

		    'connectionID'=>'db',

		),

I read some post but I got the same error.

I tried:

sudo ln -s /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock

Change localhost to 127.0.0.1

please any help.

thanks,

Adrian

HI

‘connectionString’ => ‘mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=trackstar_dev;’,

replace with

‘connectionString’ => ‘mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=trackstar_dev’,

Try now

Thanks

Hi, thanks.

But I did the change and I got the same error.

Any other suggested???

thanks

it says: CDbConnection failed to open the DB connection: could not find driver

so check if you have PDO_mysql PHP module installed. You can check this using phpinfo() command.

5

yes. I just checked and I have that extension.

PDO support enabled

PDO drivers sqlite, sqlite2, pgsql, mysql.

Is it a yii error or it’s about configuration???

6

Did you check phpinfo() through web? or also through CLI (commandline)? you may have different php.ini for those environments and disabled PDO_mysql in CLI…

If I use this, it works.

php -c /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.3.6/conf/php.ini ./yiic shell config/main.php

Do you know the way to configure the php.ini. I want this /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.3.6/conf/php.ini as default.

thanks for your help.

I found that the database configuration for the console needs to have


unix_socket=/tmp/mysql.sock

after running


sudo ln -s /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock

while the database configuration for the main does not need a socket specified.
