SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory (SQL: select * from information

I am trying to migrate the tables in "phpMyAdmin" by using this command php artisan migrate and getting this error.

Illuminate\Database\QueryException  : SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory (SQL: select * from information_schema.tables where table_schema = home and table_name = migrations)

I am using Xampp to run the server and the .env file has the following information:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=home
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=root
DB_STRICT=false
DB_SOCKET=

Kindly guide me on how I could sort out this error.

First, check all migration files. After that, if the problem does not solve then try with a new database name.

CodePudding user response：

The table does not exist. Create a fresh migration and check out the table names
