I had this problem and after much googling I discovered I needed to enable an extension with a name like pdo_mysql.so (or pdo_mysql.dll on windows) and restart apache before cake would successfully connect.
Sorry for the lack of detail but i am not near my dev pc and can't shell into it. Hope this helps. Paul.
