Running "wp acorn" Results in Database Error

sage

I’m trying to run ACF-Composer with Sage 10 and having troubles on setup. It’s been a looong time since I used WP-CLI but I get the expected output running “wp --info” (copied below). However, running “wp acorn” results in Error: Error establishing a database connection.

I’m using LocalWP on my machine for my dev environment. Any ideas?

This turned out to be a WP-CLI / LocalWP issue, not Acorn. By changing my wp-config as outlined in this article, the problem resolved.
