title: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2054] Server sent charset unknown to the client. Please, report to the developers
body: <p>I am trying to create a login system in laravel. 
  I've updated env. file with a database called kokodb.
  However, when I run this code '<strong>php artisan migrate</strong>' in cmd, I came up with the following error: </p>
  
  <p><strong>In Connection.php line 647:</strong></p>
  
  <blockquote>

    information_schema.tables where table_schema =    kokodb and
    table_name = migrations)</p>
