PHP Laravel5.3 form modelling binding http 500 error

I just wanted to update user profile, but when I try to load user data via Laravel 5.3.0 Form Modelling, I only see HTTP ERROR 500, I have printed {{$user}} it has data in it. Issue was caused by the line below

 {!! Form::model($user, ['method' => 'PATCH', 'route' =>['profile.update', $user->id]]) !!}

Full form code below 

{!! Form::model($user, ['method' => 'PATCH', 'route' => ['profile.update', $user->id]]) !!}
    <div class="form-group">
        {!! Form::label('name', 'Name') !!}
        {!! Form::text('name', null, ['class' => 'form-control', 'placeholder' => 'Enter your name', 'required' => '']) !!}
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        {!! Form::label('email', 'Email Address') !!}
        {!! Form::input('email', 'email', null, ['class' => 'form-control', 'placeholder' => 'Enter Email ', 'required' => '']) !!}
    </div>
    {!! Form::close() !!}

Kindly let me know what is wrong with the above.

Solution

  • You should use Route::resource() or Route::patch() to build this route. So, just change ::get to ::patch.

    Also, update() method should like this, so you'd be able to use form data:

    public function update(Request $request)
