Edit your webroot/index.php file and look for the following lines:
$Dispatcher=new Dispatcher();
$Dispatcher->dispatch($url);
Just before these two lines try adding the following code:
$ConnectionManager =& ConnectionManager::getInstance();
$DataSource = @$ConnectionManager->getDataSource('default');
$connected = @$DataSource->connect();
if (!$connected)
{
echo '<strong>COULD NOT CONNECT to database.</strong><br /><br />';
echo 'Current Settings:';
echo '<ul>';
echo '<li>HOST: ' . $DataSource->config['host'] . '</li>';
echo '<li>USER: ' . $DataSource->config['login'] . '</li>';
echo '<li>DATABASE: ' . $DataSource->config['database'] . '</li>';
echo '</ul>';
exit;
}
else
{
$DataSource->disconnect();
}
Note that the @ at these two lines:
$DataSource = @$ ConnectionManager->getDataSource('default');
$connected= @$ DataSource->connect();
are needed because otherwise you would get warning messages coming from your
connection. So with the @ at the beginning we avoid these functions
outputting any disturbing message and instead use the returning boolean
value from connect() to check the connection.

Para: Cake PHP
Asunto: Catching DB connection failure
We are using Cake in a project that will eventually be distributed to
be installed on a user's server. One thing I am struggling with is how
to catch when they have entered the wrong connection details for their
particular database server in the configuration file. Is there an easy
way to catch when the database connection has failed?
