CakePHP. app/Console/cake: Permission denied for root user

Question

I am using CakePHP 2.4.7 and I'm trying to execute CakePHP shell on remote host.

I'm connecting to server as root and then executing $ [path_to_my_foler]/app/Console/cake

The output is: -bash: [path_to_my_foler]/app/Console/cake: Permission denied

How could it be? How to fix it?

Answer 1

In CakePHP Version 3 and above this is the right command.

chmod +x bin/cake

This is CakePHP documentation for reference.

Console

The cake executable has been moved from the app/Console directory to the bin directory within the application skeleton. You can now invoke CakePHP’s console with bin/cake.
