Question: after I've manually deleted a table in mysql, I run the command:

```
php artisan migrate

```

and I get this:

```
Nothing to migrate.

```

it only works the first time, how to re-run the migration in laravel?

Answer: 
Try `composer dump-autoload` AND `php artisan config:cache`

if not working also Try `php artisan migrate:refresh`.

OR Also Delete Migration table in database.
That is the expected behaviour if you manually delete a table, because the previous batch migration job has already been deployed (in **migrations** table).

* IF you want to re-migrate all the database, you can simply do: `php artisan migrate:refresh`.
* IF you want to make sure your database to be clean with your latest changes, you can drop your entire database tables and do `php artisan migrate` again. Also, you can try `php artisan migrate --seed` if you have any seeder.
