orm Failed To Load When Doing sails lift

Question

I'm using "sails": "~0.12.1". I'm connecting to a mysql db. I can connect to the DB on MySQL Workbench, so the DB is working. When I try to sails lift I get this error:

info: Starting app...

error: A hook (`orm`) failed to load!

Update: config/connections.js

module.exports.connections = {
  mysql: {
    adapter: 'sails-mysql',
    host: 'localhost',
    user: 'root',
    password: 'root',
    database: 'quizzlydb'
  }
};

config/models.js

module.exports.models = {
  connection: 'mysql',
  migrate: 'alter'
};

package.json

...
"sails": "~0.12.1",
"sails-disk": "~0.10.9",
"sails-memory": "^0.10.6",
"sails-mysql": "^0.11.5",
"waterline": "^0.11.0",

I was missing a comma inside one of my models. Phew! I thought I was going crazy for a second there.
