I have this config:
'default' => [
'className' => 'Cake\Database\Connection',
'driver' => 'Cake\Database\Driver\Mysql',
'persistent' => false,
'host' => 'localhost',
/**
* CakePHP will use the default DB port based on the driver selected
* MySQL on MAMP uses port 8889, MAMP users will want to uncomment
* the following line and set the port accordingly
*/
//'port' => 'nonstandard_port_number',
'username' => 'root',
'password' => 'root',
'database' => 'addressbook',
'encoding' => 'utf8',
'timezone' => 'UTC',
'cacheMetadata' => true,
/**
* Set identifier quoting to true if you are using reserved words or
* special characters in your table or column names. Enabling this
* setting will result in queries built using the Query Builder having
* identifiers quoted when creating SQL. It should be noted that this
* decreases performance because each query needs to be traversed and
* manipulated before being executed.
*/
'quoteIdentifiers' => false,
/**
* During development, if using MySQL < 5.6, uncommenting the
* following line could boost the speed at which schema metadata is
* fetched from the database. It can also be set directly with the
* mysql configuration directive 'innodb_stats_on_metadata = 0'
* which is the recommended value in production environments
*/
//'init' => ['SET GLOBAL innodb_stats_on_metadata = 0'],
],
And i have a local MySql Database with same login params that i've entered above, but on the front page of freshly installed CakePHP in tells me next:
CakePHP is NOT able to connect to the database.
Connection to database could not be established: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
How can i fix it? I'm connecting just fine with this login and password via MySql Workbench. What's stopping Cake framework from doing the same?
