CakePHP: -bash: cake: command not found

iamjonesy picture iamjonesy · Oct 26, 2010 · Viewed 7.3k times · Source

I've used CakePHP a few times before but this is the first time I'm trying out Bake. On my Mac I'm running CakePHP 1.3, PHP5.3.3, and MySQL. I've created my database tables and the app connects to the database.

I navigate to the console folder. and type ./cake

I get welcome to the CakePHP v.1.3.5 Console. Then I gives me a list of shells to run. It says

To run a command, type 'cake shell_name [args]'

I type:

cake bake all

and get

-bash: cake: command not found

Can someone help me out here? I'm not sure if I've missed something.

./cake bake all
