Artisan migrate could not find driver

Question

I am trying to install Laravel. I have installed Xampp, but when I try to setup my database using php artisan migrateI get the error:

Answer 1

Go to .env file and change the following

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=shreemad
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=

Change the DB_PASSWORD field to

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=shreemad
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=" "

In my case it works

NOTE: If your password in mysql is null
