Answer 1

Instead of:❌
'email'=>'required|email|unique:users,email',
Use this:✅
'email'=>'required|email|unique:user,email',
Note the table name defined in your User Model is user.
Hence, that has to be reflected in your validation rules as well.

Answer 2

You forget to check you table in in validation
'email'=>'required|email|unique:users,email',
replace users to user

Answer 3

You are using the wrong table name in the validation, you need to replace 'users' by 'user' :
'email'=>'required|email|unique:users,email' to be 'email'=>'required|email|unique:user,email'
