Getting started with Laravel and Sentry

I found a Laravel 4 announcement on HN a few weeks ago and thought I could give it a try.

After looking for a basic tutorial, I found this one:

http://www.codeforest.net/laravel4-simple-website-with-backend-1

And ran into what is probably a silly problem: the command php artisan migrate --package=cartalyst/sentry created a single table in my database when it should have created four, according to the tutorial.

Is there some step missing, or did I assume wrong when I thought it had something setup to create the needed tables?

Looking at the Sentry home I couldn´t find what I did wrong, so I´ll just look for the SQL to create the tables in the source, but I still would like to know what was the problem.

Solution

  • First run

    php artisan migrate

    Then run

    php artisan migrate --package=cartalyst/sentry

    After doing this it should create these tables: migrations, groups, throttle, users, user_groups

    If fails again, destroy your database, re-create and re-run these steps.
