Running laravel on Bitnami WAPP Postgresql

Question

I'm trying to attach my new Laravel 5.8 project on Bitnami WAPP's (https://bitnami.com/stack/wapp) (v 7.1) Postgresql server

My .env DB config:

DB_CONNECTION=pgsql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=5432
DB_DATABASE=rest
DB_USERNAME=postgres
DB_PASSWORD=*password defined during WAPP installation*

when I run php artisan migrate I get:

 Illuminate\Database\QueryException  : could not find driver (SQL: select * from information_schema.tables where table_schema = public and table_name = migrations)

What am I doing wrong?

I fixed the problem with this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/51554488/2161119 — Mister M, Apr 25 '19 at 11:48
@RopAliMunshi I linked the actual answer, I don't know why but php was loading wrong configuration file (php.ini) from old xampp installation — Mister M, Apr 25 '19 at 12:03

It is a must that you need to uncomment the pdo and postgres shared object in your PHP configuration settings (php.ini).

You need to uncomment the following lines in your php.ini

extension=pdo_pgsql.so
extension=pgsql.so

After that restart your server.
