Question

I have problem running the bake commands. i think it is related to mysql but i didn\'t find any solution to this error on Stackoverflow. This is my app.php:

Answer 1

I am a beginner and got this problem on CakePHP Tutorial with using MAMP on MAC.

First I found php in my MAMP with this command:

find /Applications/mampstack-7.1.21-0/ -type f -name php

This should output your directory…. In my case this was:
/Applications/mampstack-7.1.21-0//php/bin/php

Then I found .bash_profile and opened it with this command:

touch ~/.bash_profile; open ~/.bash_profile

It will open it with TextEdit. Then in this file, I edited path to the one I got with the first command and deleted the extra path with sbin:

export PATH="/Applications/mampstack-7.1.21-0/php/bin/:$PATH"

In Terminal command:

grep php ~/.bash_profile

Then I closed all terminals and after that, it works for me.

Thanks a lot for the first comment, it was helpful to get to this solution.
