So I think I finally got Cake working on a Mac. Here's what I did: - reinstall OS X 10.4 & get all updates - install MySQL 5 from www.mysql.com - install php5 from www.entropy.ch - install TinkerTool from http://www.bresink.de/osx/TinkerTool.html to show hidden files (you'll need this to view hidden files otherwise you'll lose your .htaccess file which is very bad!) - download latest CakePHP & extract - delete everything in /Library/WebServer/Documents - copy all Cake files & folders (app/, cake/, vendors/, index.php, VERSION.txt, and .htaccess) to /Library/WebServer/Documents - edit httpd.conf so it says "AllowOverride ALL" in the DocumentRoot's <Directory> section - recursively allow read & write access to app/tmp folder & all its subfolders (do this by doing Get Info on tmp folder) - http://localhost should now load the Cake welcome page with all its images & layout - the 15 minute blog tutorial (http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/18) then worked just fine
