Hello, maybe someone can help me with this problem I'm having;
When trying to use Yiic command line shell to create the model (model *) it outputs the following error:
exception 'CDbException' with message 'CDbConnection failed to open the DB'

I can not figure out what's happening, not only mysql pdo is there, I can do the following in my index.php:
$db = Yii::app()->db;
$command=$db->createCommand('select * from Alu');
$rows = $command->queryAll();
print_r($rows[0]);

and it works just fine
Don't know what to try

Something?
thanks

Juan

sometimes (eg. in wamp instalations) the CLI PHP uses another php.ini file diferent to the php.ini used for the web.
Hope you understand!
A way to know if they are different is running phpinfo() both from a web browser and from command line
