Installing Akelos - Fatal Error

I'm completely new to the Akelos framework, but I am familiar with PHP. When I came across the framework I knew it was exactly what I was looking for but for the life of me I cannot get it to install properly.

Here are the steps that I went through and the details of my environment:

1. I am on a Mac Intel, using MAMP as my main environment
2. I have copied the Akelos files into my project folder.

3. When I navigate to localhost:8888 (as setup by mamp) I first get this error message:

   (Warning) Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /Users/Salman/Work/_PERSONAL PROJECTS/Web Development/PHP_Development/SPM开发者_JAVA百科/public/index.php:50)

   But when I refreshed the page that warning disappears and I successfully obtain the Akelos Getting Started page

4. I setup the database configuration, and proceed

5. I successfully set the language settings

6. First I get the following error:

   (User Error) Could not create or alter table akelos_migrations using the SQL

   CREATE TABLE akelos_migrations ( id

   INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, name VARCHAR(255), version

   INTEGER, updated_at

   DATETIME, created_at

   DATETIME, PRIMARY KEY (id) )TYPE=InnoDB

7. When I refresh - everything "appears" to work fine and I am taken to to the "Welcome Aboard" page

8. When I try to run Script / Generate I get the following message:

   Warning: mysql_connect(): [2002] No such file or directory (trying to connect via unix:///var/mysql/mysql.sock) in /Users/Salman/Work/_PERSONAL PROJECTS/Web Development/PHP_Development/SPM/vendor/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 353

   Warning: mysql_connect(): No such file or directory in /Users/Salman/Work/_PERSONAL PROJECTS/Web Development/PHP_Development/SPM/vendor/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 353

   Fatal error: Connection to the database failed. mysqlt://salman:******@localhost/socialPM_dev in /Users/Salman/Work/_PERSONAL PROJECTS/Web Development/PHP_Development/SPM/lib/AkActiveRecord/AkDbAdapter.php on line 66

This happens even if I try to manually create the akelos_migrations table using phpMyAdmin and SQL.

I would love to be able to use this framework - but I absolutely can't get past this!

Well the mysql socket file isnt usually in /var/mysql/mysql.sock on OS X. If you use the Mysql install from Mysql then its in /tmp/mysql.sock by default... The macports version is in /opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock by default. Im not sure where it is in MAMP because i dont use it, but my guess would be somewhere on the MAMP folder structure. You need to find out where it creates its socket and supply the path to it to your conifguration (i assume thats an option on the DB setup screen).
