I just started to learn PHP. I'm following instructions in https://www.flynsarmy.com/2015/02/creating-a-basic-todo-application-in-laravel-5-part-1/
After I set up migration using
php artisan make:migration create_projects_and_tasks_tables --create="projects"
I edit /database/migrations/_create_projects_and_tasks_tables.php as it says. But when I tried to excute
php artisan migrate
I got [PDOException] could not find driver
.
I'm running Laravel 5 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I changed ~/'myProject'/config/database.php
'default' => env('DB_CONNECTION', 'mysql'),
to
'default' => 'mysql',
Here is my .env file
APP_ENV=local
APP_DEBUG=true
APP_KEY=RCUsYpBg6N0XFaax6BeaKSOCh1s5sNHy
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_DATABASE=homestead
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret
CACHE_DRIVER=file
SESSION_DRIVER=file
QUEUE_DRIVER=sync
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=mailtrap.io
MAIL_PORT=2525
MAIL_USERNAME=null
MAIL_PASSWORD=null
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null
The output of php --ini
is
Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /etc/php5/cli
Loaded Configuration File: /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
Scan for additional .ini files in: /etc/php5/cli/conf.d
Additional .ini files parsed: /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/05-opcache.ini,
/etc/php5/cli/conf.d/10-pdo.ini,
/etc/php5/cli/conf.d/20-json.ini,

/etc/php5/cli/conf.d/20-pdo_dblib.ini,
/etc/php5/cli/conf.d/20-readline.ini
I also installed php5-sybase
package as Laravel 5: Artisan throw PDOException could not find driver suggested.
Any suggestion would be really appreciated. Thanks.
Edit 1
Ran php artisan migrate
after installed php5-mysql
[PDOException]
SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'homestead'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Edit 2
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret
should be the actual username and password for mysql
