Question

after serching up and down the internets, finding no proper answer, I am asking you:

I want to implement a getAuthAdapter(array $form)

private function getAuthAdapter(array $form) {  

  $authAdapter = new Zend_Auth_Adapter_DbTable(
     Zend_Db_Table::getDefaultAdapter(),
     'user',
     'email',
     'password',
     'MD5(?) AND hidden = "FALSE"');   
  $authAdapter->setIdentity($form['email'])
     ->setCredential($form['password']);

  return $authAdapter;
}

To establish a database connection, I added following lines to my application.ini

    resources.db.adapter = "PDO_MYSQL"
    resources.db.params.host = "localhost"
    resources.db.params.username = web5
    resources.db.params.password = ACv8vSdn
    resources.db.params.dbname = usr_web5_1
    resourses.db.isDefaultTableAdapter = true

But after trying the script I experience following error:

Application error
Exception information:

Message: No database adapter present

You might want to check you bootstrapper and debug your code which loads the db.
