Hi Hayden, I'm just learning Cake myself, and I had exactly the same problem with MAMP.
Have a look here: http://marshallthompson.net/uncategorized/mamp-socket-error-no-such-file-fix The second (permanent) fix doesn't work for me, but the first one does. With MAMP running, fire up your Terminal and do: ln -s /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock Seems to have done the trick for me. You'll need to do that each time you restart MAMP I suppose. All the best nick Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
