verify-email route does not pass "auth" middleware - php

Question

The email verification process not working.
I send email correctly. When I click on link to verify the email, I have been redirected to login page.
It seems the route does not pass auth middleware.
This is how I defined the route:
Route::middleware('auth')->group(function () {
Route::get('email/verify/{id}/{hash}', [App\Http\Controllers\Auth\VerificationController::class, 'verify'])
->name('verification.verify');
});
This is the function in the controller (it's the standard laravel function, I did not edited it):
public function verify(Request $request)
{
if (! hash_equals((string) $request->route('id'), (string) $request->user()->getKey())) {
throw new AuthorizationException;
}
if (! hash_equals((string) $request->route('hash'), sha1($request->user()->getEmailForVerification()))) {
throw new AuthorizationException;
}
if ($request->user()->hasVerifiedEmail()) {
return $request->wantsJson()
? new JsonResponse([], 204)
: redirect($this->redirectPath());
}
if ($request->user()->markEmailAsVerified()) {
event(new Verified($request->user()));
}
if ($response = $this->verified($request)) {
return $response;
}
return $request->wantsJson()
? new JsonResponse([], 204)
: redirect($this->redirectPath())->with('verified', true);
}
The auth middleware is the default middleware come with laravel.
