I am really new to CAKEPhP so need some assistance. I used to work in Codeigniter before where i used to set the base_url and it set up all the paths. Recently i downloaded a website that is made in cakephp. Placed it in folder in htdocs named as abc. Configured all the database stuff. Now when i try run it on localhost, it seems that everything is pointing to the root folder. Here is the snapshot of the missing file errors i receive in console.

enter image description here

Any idea where i can set the base_url thing in cakephp so that it can start pointing to right folder?

Thanks.

    can you pls show what you have tried? if you are completely clueless at this moment.. you may want to try changing .htaccess in localhost such that it redirects to folder abc http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10404892/htaccess-is-not-working-by-my-desires-with-cakephp – Rakesh Shewale Apr 28 '15 at 07:04
  • please drop your images in img folder of cakephp. Path is App/webroot/img. and use the following syntax $this->Html->image('imagename.png'); – Sharma Vikram Apr 28 '15 at 09:29
  • It would also help to not use localhost, but a proper [vhost setup](http://www.dereuromark.de/2011/05/29/working-with-domains-locally/) locally. – mark Apr 28 '15 at 13:48

App.imageBaseUrl Web path to the public images directory under webroot. If you are using a CDN you should set this value to the CDN’s location.
