Artisan migration error Class Doctrine DBAL Driver PDOMySql Driver not found

Question

When trying to run a migration I get the error Artisan migration

error:Class 'Doctrine\\DBAL\\Driver\\PDOMySql\\Driver' not found

I have read the questions here and also see the notes to add:

doctrine/dbal": "~2.3 in the requires section of composer.json

Github Bug Report

However, I don't understand what has happened. I created table a few days ago with no issue.

I can't figure out what to do after adding that dependency in composer.son.

I don't want to accidentally update any other packages.

Hello @kartik,

This message shows up if you want to edit column in a database.

To solve it do:

• add doctrine/dbal dependency to composer.json
• and use the composer require doctrine/dbal command

Hope this work!!

Thank you!!
