I edited the cake/libs/model/dbo/dbo_postgres.php in versions 1.1.5 and 1.1.8 of Cake in the following manner:
Change this line: $sql = "SELECT table_name as name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.tables WHERE table_schema = 'public';"; To this: $sql = "SELECT table_schema ||'.'|| table_name as name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.tables;"; And where you see: $cols = $this->fetchAll("SELECT DISTINCT column_name AS name, data_type AS type, is_nullable AS null, column_default AS default, ordinal_position FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name =" . $this->value($model->tablePrefix . $model->table) . " ORDER BY ordinal_position"); in function &describe(&$model) change it to this: $schemaSupport = strpos($this->value($model->table), "."); if ($schemaSupport !== false ) { $tableSchema = substr($this->value($model->table),0,$schemaSupport); $tableName = substr($this->value($model->table),$schemaSupport+1); $cols = $this->fetchAll("SELECT DISTINCT column_name AS name, data_type AS type, is_nullable AS null, column_default AS default, ordinal_position FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name ='$tableName and table_schema=$tableSchema' ORDER BY ordinal_position"); } else { $cols = $this->fetchAll("SELECT DISTINCT column_name AS name, data_type AS type, is_nullable AS null, column_default AS default, ordinal_position FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name =" . $this->value($model->tablePrefix . $model->table) . " AND table_schema='public' ORDER BY ordinal_position"); } The last thing you have to do is specify: var $useTable = 'schema.tablename'; in your Models For example: class Billing extends AppModel { var $name = 'Billing'; var $useTable = 'billing.stuff'; } I've only been using Cake for a couple months now, so I don't know if this is *the* solution, but it has worked well for the time I have been using it. I use PostgreSQL 8 with a lot of 'legacy'-named tables (which, at this point, has persuaded me to use raw SQL instead some of the nicer Cake table constructs).
