Laravel Framework 5.7.27 custom method return blank page

Question

I have this issue of getting a blank page in Laravel and I don't know where I go wrong.

Here is my code sample: view maintenance/index.blade.php

<form method="post" action="{{route('maintenance.update_request')}}" enctype="multipart/form-data">
     <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="put">
     {{ csrf_field() }}
     .....

and in Controller MaintenanceController.php I create custom method update_request

public function update_request(Request $request) {
    dd($request);
}

then web.php (route)

Route::post('maintenance/update_request', 'MaintenanceController@update_request')->name('maintenance.update_request');
Route::resource('maintenance', 'MaintenanceController');

but when i click submit button i get blank page ....public/maintenance/update_request

Answer 1

Your route method should be put because you are submitting your form on put request.

Route::put('maintenance/update_request', 'MaintenanceController@update_request')->name('maintenance.update_request');

OR

Route::put('maintenance/update_request', ['as'=>'maintenance.update_request','uses'=>'MaintenanceController@update_request']);
