SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1231 Variable 'sql_mode' can't be set to the value of 'NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER'
I finally found the solutions a days ago and I remembered this post. In the
"config/database.php" file in mysql tag, the sql modes should be added in order
to skip this error.

My MySQL array ended up like this:
'mysql' => [
'driver' => 'mysql',
'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
'unix_socket' => env('DB_SOCKET', ''),
'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
'prefix' => '',
'strict' => true,
'engine' => null,
'modes' => [
'ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY',
'STRICT_TRANS_TABLES',
'NO_ZERO_IN_DATE',
'NO_ZERO_DATE',
'ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO',
'NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION',
],
],
