Laravel page not found at create function - laravel

Question

Recently I started programming using Laravel as a framework. Everything goes fine, but I tried to write a create script with the following message at runtime:
Sorry, the page you are looking for could not be found.
That's after posting Accept in the Create form, I already have created Index, Show, Update and delete functions successfully. So the route to my controller is correct, the file exist ... I'm totally stuck and can not see what incorrect.
Please help.
I didn't redirect the public folder so I'm still using the full path with no problem at the other modules (/gymmgr/public/lockers).
I send you the code:

Answer 1

Your create form has:
<form method="post" action="{{ route('lockers.create') }}">
...
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="put">
So you are sending a PUT request to your create route. As the docs describe, the .create route the resource declaration sets up is expecting a GET (check the table of actions it sets up). So that request will fail with a 404 as there is no matching route set up.
Also, though confusingly named, the create route is for displaying the create form, not saving data you've entered into that form. So you should not be submitting data to your create route.
You need to:
Change your form action to point to your store route: ... action="{{ route('lockers.store') }}
Remove the form method spoofing, store expects POST which is what you'll get by default without any spoofing.
