Answer 1

I am running Laravel 8.x on my pc. This error gave me headache. To recreate the error, this is what I did: First I created a controller called MyModelController.php Secondly, I wrote a simple function to return a blade file containing 'Hello World', called myFunction. Lastly, I created a Route: Route::get('/','MyModelController@myFunction'); This did not work.

This was how I solved it. First you would have to read the documentation on: (https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/releases#laravel-8)

At the 'web.php' file this was the Route i wrote to make it work:

use App\Http\Controllers\MyModelController;

Route::get('/', [MyModelController::class, 'myFunction']);
