New version of Laravel project using old versions database - php

Question

I'm trying to make an API using Laravel, but I've run in to a problem.
I've started a second version of the project, but even though I've changed the database to a second version database, it's still trying to take from the first versions database.
Version 1 database is APITest, version 2 database is APITest2
Image of 'apitest' search of entire folder
The only occurrences of 'APITest' is in the logs from when I was setting up the database, I'm using Laravel, Gitbash and Xampp, I've tried clearing the cache and restarting the server. I can't figure out where it's still even connected to the old database.
The cache clear(s) I did:
php artisan config:cache
php artisan config:clear
Thanks for any help you can give, let me know if there's any other pics/snippets I can provide
Edit: Image of the error

Answer 1

The project's path in the search image doesn't match the path in the error image, the web-server is probably still pointing to your old project. Change the root folder and restart the server.
