Answer 1

I was getting the same problem using EasyPHP. Found that I had to specify AllowOverride All in my <Directory> block in httpd.conf. Without this, Apache sometimes ignores your .htaccess.

Mine ended up looking like this...

<Directory "D:/Dev">
    Options FollowSymLinks Indexes
    #### NEXT IS THE CRUCIAL LINE ####
    AllowOverride All                  
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
    Deny from all
    Require all granted     
</Directory>

Answer 2

Just Run in your terminal.

 composer dump-autoload

Answer 3

1. setup .env file
2. configure index.html
3. make sure u have .htaccess
4. sudo service apache2 restart

most probably it's due to cache problems

Answer 4

On my Ubuntu LAMP installation, I solved this problem with the following 2 changes.

1. Enable mod_rewrite on the apache server: sudo a2enmod rewrite.
2. Edit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, changing the "AllowOverride" directive for the /var/www directory (which is my main document root): AllowOverride All

Then restart the Apache server: service apache2 restart

Answer 5

Route::get('/', function()
{
return View::make('home.index');
});

Route::get('user', function()
{
return View::make('user.index');
});

change above to

Route::get('user', function()
{
return View::make('user.index');
});

Route::get('/', function()
{
return View::make('home.index');
});

You have to use '/'(home/default) at the end in your routes

Don't forget the "RewriteBase" in your public/.htaccess :

For example :

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /your/folder/public
