Problems with CakePHP shell in Ubuntu 14.04

could somebody explain why this:

sudo Console/cake

works when I am inside path/to/cakeproject/app while this:

sudo cake

absolutely does NOT work whe I am inside path/to/cakeproject/app/Console?

Actually, understanding this would be simply a first step for me to understand why I can run sudo Console/cake when I am in the right directory (app), but I cannot run sudo cake anywhere even after modifying the PATH variable following these steps. If someone knows any possible causes for this already, please also feel free to share your thoughts.

PS: About when I said "I cannot run sudo cake anywhere", this is the error I get:

sudo: cake: command not found
Solution

  • I had the same problem.

    You just need to install "php5-cli" to make it works.

    $ sudo apt-get install php5-cli

    Then try again with "cake" in your console.

    $ cake

    It should work.
