SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column - Laravel
You have configured the auth.php and used members table for authentication but there is no user_email field in the members table so, Laravel says
SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'user_email' in 'where clause' (SQL: select * from members where user_email = ? limit 1) (Bindings: array ( 0 => 'test@hotmail.com', ))
Because, it tries to match the user_email in the members table and it's not there. According to your auth configuration, laravel is using members table for authentication not users table.
You don't have a field named user_email in the members table... as for why, I'm not sure as the code "looks" like it should try to join on different fields
Does the Auth::attempt method perform a join of the schema?Run grep -Rl 'class Auth' /path/to/framework and find where the attempt method is and what it does.
Try to change where Member class
public function users() { return $this->hasOne('User');} return $this->belongsTo('User');
