i have read and tried all the solutions i found on google and stackoverflow but none of them worked, and the connection is fine when i just implement my own model, controller and view.

Well, what exactly is it that you have already tried? I wouldn't want to shoot in the dark just to hear that you've already tried that. — ndm, Nov 17 '14 at 17:00
i followed this video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olXzCpVbIF8 — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 19:44
and i tried to change "localhost" to 127.0.0.1, tried running cmd as an admin, i double and triple checked the username and password and database name — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 19:47
Do you maybe have a separate php.ini for the CLI (`php -i | find /i "Configuration File"`)? If so, make sure that it has PDO enabled (`extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll`). — ndm, Nov 17 '14 at 20:03
i cant find the "Loaded Configuration File" but i can see "PDO support => enabled" — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 20:10
ah omg ... i see it now (after running : php -i | find /i "Configuration File") — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 20:11
it turned out that the CLI is not set to the easyphp ini file, how can i change it? — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 20:11

yes, i checked that, but i didnt find the "Software/PHP" directory in registry, and i i didnt find the "PHPRC" variable in the "System variables" — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 20:28
anyways, just post ur solution, i changed that ini files, and it worked like a charm :D thank you. — Ouerghi Yassine, Nov 17 '14 at 20:34

It says there connection to Mysql is missing.

Make sure you have MySQL installed in your server first.

Then,have you changed your database configuration in /app/Config/database.php? You need to setup your database first.

If you already did that, have you test the connection? running localhost/yourwebfolder will display if you already set up CakePHP correctly before you can proceed with "baking"
