Very Confusing MethodNotAllowedHttpException on a put request laravel

replied 7 years ago

I haven't used the HTML Helpers since 4.2 so I don't know if they are doing it automatically for you. But for PUT, PATCH, and DELETE methods you need to have a hidden input field. This field needs to be called _method.

You can read about it here: https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/routing#form-method-spoofing

They do automatically put it in. I checked the html, printed here for you:


<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
	<meta charset="UTF-8">
	<title>Missionseek</title>
	   <!-- Fonts -->
        <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Raleway:100,600"; rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
		<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/app.css">

		</head>
<body>

	<div class="flex-center position-ref full-height">
                            <div class="top-right links">
					<a href="http://localhost:8000/Agency";>Agencies</a>

                    <a href="http://localhost:8000/register";>Register</a>
                </div>
            	<div class="container">

    <ul>
            </ul>
    <form method="POST" action="http://localhost:8000/users"; accept-charset="UTF-8" class="form"><input name="_method" type="hidden" value="PUT"><input name="_token" type="hidden" value="xmTLggTGICaRCzTrp9oJPfebzhN20cdCXj5p00kY">

Problem solved. $user->id needed to be $user->ID. This is sometimes allowed by laravel, but in this case the capitalisation was strict.
