POST Method in route gives error 404

I want to generate a random password on button click but it leads to Error 404

The Form

<form style="position:relative;left:-15px" action="{{ route("dashboard.users.generate-app-password-store") }}" method="post">                       
   @csrf
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary float-right mt-2">
            {{ trans("translation.generate-password") }}
     </button>
</form>

The Controller Function

public function generateAppEmailPasswordStore(Request $request)
    {
        $user = User::findOrFail($request->uid);
        
            $user->app_email_password_store = Hash::make(Str::random(8));
            $user->app_email_password_store = $request->app_email_password_store;
            $user->save();  
            Alert::flash(trans("translation.email-account-created"));

        return redirect()->route("dashboard.users.profile", ["id" => $user->id]);
    }

The route (prefix => dashboard is the main route group)

Route::group(["prefix" => "user", "middleware" => "checkRole:admin"], function () {
    Route::post("/generate-app-password-store", 
    "Dashboard\UsersController@generateAppEmailPasswordStore")- 
    >name("dashboard.users.generate-app-password-store");
}

The error

CodePudding user response：

either change your dashboard.user.generate-app-password-store (instead of dashboard.users.generate-app-password-store) in your view

change your route prefix to users (instead of user)

CodePudding user response：

The problem seems to be that you mismatch the " usage.

action="{{ route("dashboard.users.generate-app-password-store") }}"

should be

action="{{ route('dashboard.users.generate-app-password-store') }}"

The reasoning is that you close the action too early.

action="{{ route("

CodePudding user response：

You are probably recieving 404 because of this line in the controller method.

$user = User::findOrFail($request->uid)

Check if you get the correct value for $request->uid or if there is a user with the given ID.

Otherwise it will throw a 404 error.
