Some useful Information:
- Im running on OS X (El Capitan Beta)
- Im using XAMPP
- I've successfully installed Laravel 5 and I can confirm it works.
Here is my migration file:
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class CreateUsersTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('users', function(Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('email');
$table->string('username');
$table->string('password');
$table->string('first_name')->nullable();
$table->string('last_name')->nullable();
$table->string('remember_token')->nullable();
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::drop('users');
}
}

When I run 'php artisan migrate' on the Terminal I get a
[PDOException]
SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory
My database connection credintels are: The host is: 'localhost' db username is: 'root' db password is: ''
I have no tables in my database, I want to run the migration to create the table.
Thanks in advance
