Solved: MySQL server has gone away after upgrading php 7.4 (Valet)
I just upgraded my Valet installation with homebrew to php 7.4. PHP is working fine but suddenly my Laravel log shows this 'MySQL server has gone away' error.
See below the solution that worked for me.

My quick solution was to edit my.cnf:
nano /usr/local/etc/my.cnf
Add this line:
default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_password
Save the file and restart MySql with:
brew services restart mysql
