Hello, your have found a solved to the problem?

[pishguy]

@HDsouls not yet, i think this package is not available for php 8 or laravel 8

You can 'fix' this by updating some code in PragmaRX\Support\Migration

The issue is with PHP8 and PDO transaction stuff. The original code of the 'executeInTransaction' function needs to be amended. The original code is:

/**
	 * Execute the migrationm command inside a transaction layer.
	 *
	 * @param $method
	 */
	protected function executeInTransaction($method)
	{
		$this->connection->beginTransaction();

		try 
		{
			$this->{$method}();
		} 
		catch (\Exception $exception)
		{
			$this->connection->rollback();

			$this->handleException($exception);
		}

		$this->connection->commit();
	}

Change the last bit to:

		if ($this->connection->getPdo()->inTransaction()) {
			$this->connection->commit();
		}

It works for me but I haven't tested it more broadly.

[Xevrac]

Thanks for the tip @ingoldsby - Have you had any side affects from this in the last 15 days? Or noticed any other issues abroad

[ingoldsby]

I'm not sure if it was related or not, but I had some session_start() issues when I pushed it to AWS from local computer. So I took it off for now until I get time to investigate more.

[rohanshukla94]

Check if your php.ini file has php_pdo extension enabled. I am trying this on Laravel 8.44 and it migrated the migration files. I got the blade files through git checkout and opened Stats route which now only gives me Datatables error.

PS I did not follow @ingoldsby 's advice

I have same problem on Laravel 8

Thank you it worked, rather than overwriting the packages I duplicated PragmaRX\Support\Migration locally as a util, applied the changes you suggested, and imported my util in the all the migrations.
Hope this helps someone else in the meantime

had the same error. Found a work around by editing by editing the commit function. I reduced the transaction count to zero. Was able to seed without error, rolled back the code after I was through. Hope it helps someone.

[bradietilley]

This error can be caused by different things, but ultimately a transaction being committed prematurely.

For me it was the because my base Tests\TestCase was using Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\RefreshDatabase a bunch of children TestCase were using Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\DatabaseMigrations. After removing DatabaseMigrations it works fine.

[danshou]

The solution from @bradietilley worked for me. After doing a little research I found out that RefreshDatabase starts every test with a brand new database and DatabaseMigrations executes a rollback after finishing the test. The second one is unnecessary since every test will start the database as brand new. There was no need for a rollback in my case.
