Laravel 5.3 db:seed command simply doesn't work
Are you calling your seeder inside the DatabaseSeeder class? This way:
database/seeds/DatabaseSeeder.php
class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder{ /** * Run the database seeds. * * @return void */ public function run() { $this->call(QuotationTableSeeder::class); }}Or, add the --class option when using the php artisan db:seed command, this way:
php artisan db:seed --class="QuotationTableSeeder"After creating or removing your seeders, don't forget to run the following command:
composer dump-autoload
NB:Please use with caution on DEV ENVIRONMENT and/or DISPOSABLE DATABASES ONLY
If anybody else is having issues with migrating AND seeding at the same time, please try
php artisan migrate:fresh --seedWorked for me..
