nova notifcations doesn't exit

Just got Nova installed - besides being really slow this notification just keeps popping up at the bottom: SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'larapi.action_events' doesn't exist (SQL: insert into action_events (batch_id, user_id, name, actionable_type, actionable_id, target_type, target_id, model_type, model_id, fields, original, changes, status, exception, updated_at, created_at) values (96c0b3dd-145e-4a66-8d54-2201ab9d27fd, 1, Create, App\Models\User, 4, App\Models\User, 4, App\Models\User, 4, , ?, {"name":"John Smith","email":"[email protected]","updated_at":"2022-07-11T12:52:34.000000Z","created_at":"2022-07-11T12:52:34.000000Z","id":4}, finished, , 2022-07-11 12:52:34, 2022-07-11 12:52:34))

Any idea what this is about? Also where is the database? When I go to submit a form that's a no go as well - maybe I didn't create the database?

Also the database that's configured in .env is not holding any new tables ever since Nova was installed.

Thanks!
