Hi, I'm trying to perform a button in one of my views where a user (an 
admin) can perform a database connection test on the fly, I have an action 
where I have the following code and I get the error "*Database connection 
"Sqlserver" is missing, or could not be created."*
*
*
The thing is that I don't want to assign that connection to a model 
($useDbConfig), I just want to test the given config parameters. Can 
somebody help me please? I'm with Cake 2.2.3 and a working MSSQL 
implementation. Thanks in advance

public function testconnection() {
$this->layout = false; 

// Connection settings

$conn = 'test';
$config = array();
$config['datasource'] = 'Database/Sqlserver';
$config['persistent'] = false;
$config['host'] = $this->request->data['DbServer'];
$config['login'] = $this->request->data['DbUser'];
$config['password'] = $this->request->data['DbPassword'];
$config['database'] = $this->request->data['DbName'];
if (isset($this->request->data['DbPort'])) {
$config['port'] = $this->request->data['DbPort'];
} else {
$config['port'] = 1433;
} 

// connects to database

App::import('Model', 'ConnectionManager');
try {
$connected = ConnectionManager::create($conn, $config);
} catch (Exception $connectionError) {
$connected = false;
} 
if ($connected && $connected->isConnected()) {
 $this->set('res', 1);
} else {
 $this->set('res', $connectionError->getMessage());
} 
ConnectionManager::drop($conn);
}
