I've the weirdest development environment I can think of: IIS, SQL
Server 2008, and PHP. I'm not going with ASP.NET or Silverlight, so
please don't direct me there. I've had trouble setting up CakePHP
configuration for SQL Server 2008 database.

This is my configuration (CakePHP):
class DATABASE_CONFIG {
        var $default = array(
                'driver' => 'mssql',
                'persistent' => true,
                'host' => '....',
                'database' => '...',
                'prefix' => ''
        );
}
And the welcome page will only output "Your database configuration
file is present." and white page afterwards. CSS is not loaded, and
help content after that is not displayed. If I changed 'driver' =>
'mysql', CSS is loaded, help content appeared. (URL rewriting works
fine, it's not the problem)

Normally, connection string on old school PHP development is:
$serverName = '(local)';
$connectionInfo = array("Database" => "...");
$connectionResource = sqlsrv_connect($serverName, $connectionInfo);
And it works fine. (Yes, that's the new php_sqlsrv.dll driver, not the
old php_mssql.dll)
How do we fix this on CakePHP?

Thanks
