Trying to learn CakePHP I completed the Blog Tutorial without issue.
The browser shows the Cake welcome page, the database connection file is found, and Cake successfully connects to the database.
The only thing I did differently is that I used phpMyAdmin to create the posts table in a database named default, but with all of the same content as in the tutorial.
Why do I get
Error: Table posts for model Post was not found in datasource default.
in the Blog Tutorial - Adding a layer? This is the Model:
<?php
class Post extends AppModel {
}
This is the Controller:
<?php
class PostsController extends AppController {
public $helpers = array('Html', 'Form');
public function index() {
$this->set('posts', $this->Post->find('all'));
}
}
This is the View:
<!-- File: /app/View/Posts/index.ctp -->
<h1>Blog posts</h1>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Id</th>
<th>Title</th>
<th>Created</th>
</tr>
<?php foreach ($posts as $post): ?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $post['Post']['id']; ?></td>
<td>
<?php echo $this->Html->link($post['Post']['title'],
array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'view', $post['Post']['id'])); ?>
</td>
<td><?php echo $post['Post']['created']; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php unset($post); ?>
</table>
And this is the Stack Trace:
