Laravel: Route returns 404 page on form submit

Question

SOLVED

web.php route:

Route::post('/admin/users/action', [
    'uses' => 'UserController@massAction',
    'as' => 'user.massAction'
]);

form:

<form id="users-form" role="form" method="POST" action="{{ url('/admin/users/action') }}">
    {{ csrf_field() }}
    ...
</form>

UserController massAction method that doesn't get reached:

public function massAction(Request $request)
{
    $userIds = $request->input('users');
    $user = new User();

    switch ($request->input('mass-action')) {
        case 1:
            $user->deleteUser($userIds);
            $request->session()->flash('message-success', 'User(s) deleted!');
            break;
    }

    return redirect()->back();
}

On form submit it should return back with a message, but it doesn't even reach the controller. Setting a breakpoint inside the method confirms that it doesn't reach it.

It just goes to /admin/users/action and returns 404 error, because this page doesn't exist. It should go to massAction method inside UserController and get redirected back to the page where form was submitted.

I am doing the same thing for products, attributes, etc. and it works fine. Only this route and method doesn't work. Other routes in the same UserController work.

The problem was in one of input fields. Have no idea why it didn't throw any errors or even reach the controller before.

This

<input class="entity-select" type="checkbox" name="specifications[{{ $user->id }}][id]" value="{{ $user->id }}">

needed to be like this

<input class="entity-select" type="checkbox" name="users[{{ $user->id }}[id]" value="{{ $user->id }}">

After changing it back to the wrong input field name it now throws out a error and also reached breakpoint in UserController. Maybe some view cache problem? If that is a thing.
