    I deleted scripts section in composer.json.

    "scripts": {
    "post-autoload-dump": [
        "Illuminate\Foundation\ComposerScripts::postAutoloadDump",
        "@php artisan package:discover --ansi"
    ],
    "post-update-cmd": [
        "@php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-assets --ansi --force"
    ],
    "post-root-package-install": [
        "@php -r "file_exists('.env') || copy('.env.example', '.env');""
    ],
    "post-create-project-cmd": [
        "@php artisan key:generate --ansi"
    ]
},

    PHP cannot find the appropriate database driver to connect to your database.

    1. Install the PDO Extension for Your Database:
    • For MySQL: Install the pdo_mysql extension.
    • For PostgreSQL: Install the pdo_pgsql extension.
    1. Ensure the appropriate extension is enabled in your php.ini file.
    • For MySQL: extension=pdo_mysql
    • For PostgreSQL: extension=pdo_pgsql
    1. Restart your web server.
