I am new to php and cake php. I am attempting to bake up some cakephp code in the Windows Command Prompt. When I do the command "cake bake" within C:\xampp\htdocs\cake\lib\Cake\Console, I get no result, just a blinking cursor. Has anyone else ever had this happen or have any suggestions that might be helpful?

I don't know which version of Windows you have. However, you must access Environment Variables Access it by any mean. In Windows7: Right Click on Mycomputer-> Properties -> click on Advanced System Settings -> The last button Environment Variables is there, click on it From System Variables list select Path and then press Edit button. You will see a line of code, at its end add something like the following:
;C:\xampp\htdocs\cakephp\cake\console\;C:\xampp\php
The first path is the path in-which cake.bat file is found The second path is the path in-which php.exe is found.
Restart your coputer and you will find cake bake works fine at any directory you want.
