Question

What I'm wanting to accomplish is installing Vagrant and Laravel's Homestead on my local computer so that I can do away with MAMP which I actually deleted yesterday.

I had installed both Vagrant and Homestead however I later found out that my computer wouldn't let me run the php artisan migrate command because it was saying no file found.

I did some digging and had someone tell me to do some changes in the my.cnf file.

So I logged into my VM and tried to locate the file however it informed me there was no file with that name or extension inside the MySQL folder.

Can someone help me get settled back up so I can continue normally on my project?

Me-iMac:~ me$ vagrant box remove laravel/homestead
Box 'laravel/homestead' (v0.2.5) with provider 'virtualbox' appears
to still be in use by at least one Vagrant environment. Removing
the box could corrupt the environment. We recommend destroying
these environments first:

Based on your Terminal dump, I can't tell whether you've created your Homestead.yaml file. Make sure you do that so that you can access your development files from within Homestead. Run homestead init , then homestead edit , and configure your shared folders and Nginx sites. Once done, you'll need to homestead destroy and homestead up again to allow the changes to take effect.

After all that, SSH back into Homestead, change to the shared folder you set up, and try to run php artisan migrate , making sure that there is in fact an artisan file in the Laravel installation directory.
