Where are you getting that? That looks like the stack trace rather than the actual error message. — Martin Bean
when i go to localhost/cakephp to check if cakePHP is set up correctly. — Daye Buchlor
Can you screen-shot the page? There should be a more helpful error message somewhere, rather than the stack trace. — Martin Bean
