[suresh64633]

Hi ALL

 

I am new in CakePHP and want to generate files from console in windows platform.

I have WAMP in C:/wamp/www/.

Please help me to generate files form DOS Prompt.

You first need to have the cake console in your system path.  To edit your path, you need to open System Properties.  Depends on which version of windows you are running.  Typically, right click My Computer and click properties.  If you are vista or 7, you need to then click Advanced System settings.  In System Properties, click the Advanced tab.  Open "Environment Variables" and locate "Path".  Edit the path to include the cake console directory. So you may have something like:

 

...;C:\cake\console

 

If you have cake in your C:\cake directory, edit as necessary.

 

You may have to reboot, test by opening the command prompt and typing cake bake.  The easiest option is to navigate to your app directory and run cake bake, so you don't have to direct it to your app.

 

That should really be all there is to it.

I set the Environment Variables (variable Name: console AND variable value ='C:\wamp\www\cake\cake\console') and restart my PC.

 

And run following command on DOS prompt.I am getting this error.

 

C:\wamp\php>php c:/wamp/www/cake/cake/console/libs/bake.php

 

Fatal error: Class 'Shell' not found in C:\wamp\www\cake\cake\console\libs\bake.

php on line 36

 

C:\wamp\php>

Then you did not follow directions.  You have to edit your path variable, not create a new one.
