Laravel: InvalidArgumentException : Database [mysql] not configured

Question

I've been trying for days now to get Laravel working. The current problem that I can't figure out is the database that is not being configured.

.env:

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laracms
DB_USERNAME=homestead
DB_PASSWORD=secret

database.php:

'connections' => [
    'mysql' => [
        'driver'      => 'mysql',
        'host'        => env( 'DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1' ),
        'port'        => env( 'DB_PORT', '3306' ),
        'database'    => env( 'DB_DATABASE', 'laracms' ),
        'username'    => env( 'DB_USERNAME', 'homestead' ),
        'password'    => env( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'secret' ),
        'unix_socket' => env( 'DB_SOCKET', '' ),
        'charset'     => 'utf8mb4',
        'collation'   => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'      => '',
        'strict'      => true,
        'engine'      => null,
    ],
],

EDIT:

Laravel.log

Do you have a mysql server running on 127.0.0.1:3306, with a database laracms and a user homestead with all rights on that database? — user3426711

It looks as if Laravel does not find your config file, I can reproduce this error if I remove the key from the database.php config file. — Philipp Palmtag

@PhilippPalmtag Which key? I don't see any key in my database.php file — koyera

I finally got to reproduce your exact error by using the information from your log:

It looks to me like a syntax error, thus I cannot say why it is happening. Look what I did to produce the error, the quotations on the connections key:

'''connections''' => [

    'sqlite' => [
        'driver' => 'sqlite',
        'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', database_path('database.sqlite')),
        'prefix' => '',
    ],

    'mysql' => [
        'driver' => 'mysql',
        'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
        'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
        'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
        'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
        'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
        'unix_socket' => env('DB_SOCKET', ''),
        'charset' => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix' => '',
        'strict' => true,
        'engine' => null,
    ],

Please double check your config/database.php file. Maybe there are differences between your uploaded file and the local one. Something must be wrong with the connections key or something with the quotation somewhere before that. Best you post the whole file.
