CakePHP find not returning correctly - missing model name

Question

After performing a find on a model I would expect the result to be of the format

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [ModelName] => Array
              


        

Answer 1

Turns out to be very similar to this.

Again the problem was with an outdated pdo_mysql version.

This can be checked by running

strings -f pdo_mysql.so | grep ': table'

If there are no results then pdo_mysql is out of date most likely due to an installation such as

pecl install pdo_mysql

My fix was an easy one

yum install php53-mysql

I hope that this helps someone.
