Are you putting a semicolon at the end of your commands? The mysql console wants something like create database xyz; .

Can't create a mysql database when ssh'ing into vagrant
I'm new to Laravel and just joined this great community. I followed through the installation process of homestead and got my first test project to work fine.
When I ssh into homestead and do the command 'mysql -u root -p' and enter the default password (secret), I enter the MySQL monitor just fine. However when I do the command 'create database testdb' or 'show databases', it just replies with a new row to enter commands and doesn't give me any other feedback. Does someone know what the problem might be and how to solve it? Thanks!

Silly me, being tired I missed that entirely. Works great after adding semicolon to the command, thanks!
