Laravel looks for other migrations

Question

I have two Laravel projects. They are in different folders. It is okay until then.

Currently my projects use Laravel 5. The last one.

I have one project I tried to migrate. But, I do not have any idea why it is looking for migration files of another.

I run from /project1 to look for /project1/database/migrations by using this command:

php artisan migrate:refresh

However, it also looks for migrations of the project2 in the /project1/database/migrations like above:

Definitely it is not there. Because it doesn't belong to the /project1. Look at:

So, how does Laravel try to load migrations of any other project?

Ps.: I have already tried to clear the Laravel application cache. But, the bug persists.

Do the projects share the same database? Have you made a dump-autoload? — sleepless
@watcher Yes, I did migrations on project1. But, they have nothing to do with the project2. So, I wouldn't need to move them. — Seiji Manoan
@sleepless You pointed it! They use the same database. And I have noticed the Laravel depends on migrations database table. So, it has been shared between them. I cleared the migrations table and it works fine by now. Is it possible to change the migrations table name? — Seiji Manoan

As you stated your application is sharing the same database, so they share the same migrations table, just go to /config/database.php and rename it to the name you want:

/*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Migration Repository Table
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | This table keeps track of all the migrations that have already run for
    | your application. Using this information, we can determine which of
    | the migrations on disk haven't actually been run in the database.
    |
    */

    'migrations' => 'migrations',
