title: CakePHP WAMP - Database Mysql connection missing
body: <p>I have scoured the web for an answer but as of now have been unsuccessful. I am attempting to connect CakePHP to a database. But I keep getting the same response:</p>
  
  <pre><code>CakePHP is NOT able to connect to the database.
  Database connection "Mysql" is missing, or could not be created.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is part of my database.php file</p>
  
  <pre><code>public $default = array(
      'datasource' =&gt; 'Database/Mysql',
      'persistent' =&gt; false,
      'host' =&gt; 'localhost',   
      'login' =&gt; 'root',
      'password' =&gt; '',
      'database' =&gt; 'cake',
      'prefix' =&gt; '',
      //'encoding' =&gt; 'utf8',
  );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>^I've also tried different host/login combinations based from the access privileges list in phpmyadmin.</p>
  
  <p>I think one problem might be that Wampserver is finding the wrong php.ini file. It seems that it is loading the file at: "C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\php.ini" instead of something under "C:\wamp...". How would I set it to point at the right file??</p>
  
  <p>However, I had added the line "extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll" to both files and still no luck.  Any help would be appreciated.</p>
