Laravel: Error [PDOException]: Could not Find Driver in MySQL

Question

I'm trying save a register in my MySQL database using Eloquent of Laravel 5

I edited database information in .env file, localized in my system root path, and in config/database.php maintain 'default' => 'mysql' and other mysql connection information (it using env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge') for get informations)

I can use Migration, but when I trying save register using function save() of my Model:

$newClient = new Client;
$newClient->name = "John";
$newClient->save();

It will occur the fallowing error:

PDOException in Connector.php line 47:
could not find driver

================================================================ For @user3158900:

I think my PHP has MySQL extension installed, fallowing my phpinfo() about Mysql

It's usually listed under mysqlnd in the API Extensions box. It looks like you have it on the command line though, are you using WAMP? — user1669496

If you are using WAMP, your webserver and command line are using different php configurations.

Be sure to enable the pdo_mysql extension in both config files or using the WAMP options.
