1. Make sure you are working in /app/config/database.php and NOT in
/app/config/database.php.default
2. Make sure mysql is on (try to access it using phpmyadmin for example)
3. Make sure you already created a database called 'cakeblog_dtd'
4. Double check your username and password.
         Are you sure it's User and not user? Maybe it's root?
         Are you sure this is your password ?  Maybe there is no password
then you should leave it blank?
