Cannot get response from PUT request using Slim Framework

Question

Am trying to update an existing entity in my database using PUT request but i have 2 issues, when am calling the request from phpStorm rest client debugger am getting an error

{"error":true,"message":"Required field(s) restaurant_id, service_rating, food_rating, music_rating is missing or empty"}

when i call the same request from Advance rest client addon on google chrome am getting

{"error":true,"message":"Task failed to update. Please try again!"}

so i can't understand if the real bug is on the verifyRequiredParams or in my function implementation . Am providing the code if someone can help me.

This is my index.php file

$app->put('/userRatings/:rating_id', 'authenticate', function($rating_id) use($app) {
// check for required params

verifyRequiredParams(array('restaurant_id', 'service_rating', 'food_rating', 'music_rating'));

global $user_id;
$restaurant_id = $app->request->put('restaurant_id');
$service_rating = $app->request->put('service_rating');
$food_rating = $app->request->put('food_rating');
$music_rating = $app->request->put('music_rating');



$db = new DbHandler();
$response = array();

// updating rating
$result = $db->updateRating($user_id, $rating_id, $restaurant_id, $service_rating, $food_rating, $music_rating);

if ($result) {
    // rating updated successfully
    $response["error"] = false;
    $response["message"] = "Task updated successfully";
} else {
    // task failed to update
    $response["error"] = true;
    $response["message"] = "Task failed to update. Please try again!";
}
echoRespnse(200, $response);
});

This is the function code for the verifyRequiredParams which is located in the index.php file

function verifyRequiredParams($required_fields) {
$error = false;
$error_fields = "";
$request_params = array();
$request_params = $_REQUEST;
// Handling PUT request params
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'PUT') {
    $app = \Slim\Slim::getInstance();
    parse_str($app->request()->getBody(), $request_params);
}
foreach ($required_fields as $field) {
    if (!isset($request_params[$field]) || strlen(trim($request_params[$field])) <= 0) {
        $error = true;
        $error_fields .= $field . ', ';
    }

}
if ($error) {
    // Required field(s) are missing or empty
    // echo error json and stop the app
    $response = array();
    $app = \Slim\Slim::getInstance();
    $response["error"] = true;
    $response["message"] = 'Required field(s) ' . substr($error_fields, 0, -2) . ' is missing or empty';
    echoRespnse(400, $response);
    $app->stop();
}
}

And this is my DbHandler.php file where the function is located.

public function updateRating( $user_id, $rating_id, $restaurant_id, $service_rating, $food_rating, $music_rating) {
    $stmt = $this->conn->prepare("UPDATE  user_ratings set  service_rating = ?, food_rating = ?, music_rating = ? WHERE user_id = ? AND rating_id = ? AND restaurant_id = ?");
    $stmt->bind_param("iiiiii", $user_id , $rating_id, $restaurant_id, $service_rating, $food_rating, $music_rating);
    $stmt->execute();
    $num_affected_rows = $stmt->affected_rows;
    $stmt->close();
    return $num_affected_rows > 0;
} 

All my connections are ok i have checked them and also my other services are working fine

The two errors was because advance rest client use "PUT" with capital letters and php storm with lower characters even if its written with capital in php storm i notice that by changing "PUT" with "put" in the if statement of verifyRequiredParams function and now its working and updating perfectly
