CodePudding user response：

This error tell you that you are not connected to selected database .

Check your database service provider e.g xampp,lampp , ... and check it works.

if you dont use database service provider and run database by your self check that you can login in it via terminal .

for example in ubuntu try :

sudo mysql -u <username> -p <password>

after that check your .env file located to your root directory

these line should connect properly to your database

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=<your_database_name>
DB_USERNAME=<your_username>
DB_PASSWORD=<your_password>
