I am using Laravel 5.3.I deleted one of my migration files name 'feature' and everything related to it very carefully like its id from other tables etc.then i manually deleted the table from database.But now while i'm running the command "php artisan migrate:refresh".It's showing error exception with 'undefined index:***_create_features_table'.And when I'm running just 'php artisan migrate'.it shows that it was successful and all the tables successfully appear in the database.but then when i run migrate:refresh all the table disappears.what should i do to completely delete the migration file?

have you tried to truncate migration table? – Manish
no.can you please mention how i suppose to do that? – Sazrit Mustafa
In your database you have a table name migrations. There all migrate information saved. first delete all records. After that run php artisan migrate. This may help you – Manish
tried your solution..now its even not taking the migrate command – Sazrit Mustafa
If the problem persist. please follow the below procedure. – Manish

Try this.

First Manually delete the migration file under app/database/migrations/my_migration_file_name.php

Reset the composer autoload files: composer dump-autoload

Modify your database: Remove the last entry from the migrations table

Here is what I did.I cleared all the data from the database including all tables and then ran 'php artisan migrate'..that is how i made it work..But i am looking for a better solution which will not need to delete everything from the database.

Try check that you have the correct migrations first

php artisan migrate:status

Then you can try something like

php artisan migrate:refresh --step=1

And check again the status.

If you have Undefined index error and your migration was made with --path option, then add to your ModuleServiceProvier boot() method:

$this->loadMigrationsFrom(base_path('database/migrations/directory-name'));

With my case, I forgot to do the Laravel migrate before running Infyomlabs to create scaffold! So one of the reasons for "Undefined index" is that the table is not there yet.
