Error in laravel 4 - php

Question

When i try to log in , it redirects me to www.example.com/admin/{username} but it shows a NotFoundHttpException error. Thank you in advance!
The routes.php file
Route::get('/admin', 'SessionsController#create');
Route::get('/logout', 'SessionsController#destroy');
Route::get('profile', function()
{
return "welcome! Your username is" . Auth::admin()->username;
});
Route::resource('sessions', 'SessionsController', ['only' => ['index', 'create', 'destroy', 'store']]);
here is the controller SessionsController.php
<?php
class SessionsController extends \BaseController {
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function create()
{
return View::make('admins');
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* #return Response
*/
public function store()
{
$rules = array('username' => 'required', 'password' => 'required');
$validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), $rules);
if($validator -> passes()){
$credentials = array(
'username' => Input::get('username'),
'password' => Input::get('password')
);
if(Auth::admin($credentials,true)){
$username = Input::get('username');
return Redirect::to("admin/{$username}");
} else {
return Redirect::to('/admin')->withErrors('Username or password invalid');
}
} else {
return Redirect::to('/admin')->withErrors($validator->messages());
}
}
/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* #param int $id
* #return Response
*/
public function destroy($id)
{
Auth::logout();
return Redirect::home();
}
}
the admins.blade.php
{{Form::open(array('route' => 'sessions.store'))}}
<h1>ADMIN LOGIN </h1>
{{Form::label('username', 'Username')}}
{{Form::text('username')}}
{{Form::label('password', 'Password')}}
{{Form::password('password')}}
{{Form::submit('Login')}}
{{$errors->first()}}
{{Form::close()}}
and here is the model Admin.php
use Illuminate\Auth\UserTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\UserInterface;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableInterface;
class Admin extends Eloquent implements UserInterface, RemindableInterface {
/**
* The attributes excluded from the model's JSON form.
*
* #var array
*/
protected $hidden = array('password', 'remember_token');
/**
* The database table used by the model.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $table = 'admins';
}
I also installed ollieread multiauth
and here is auth.php file
return array(
'multi' => array(
'admin' => array(
'driver' => 'database',
'model' => 'Admin',
'table' => 'admins'
),
'user' => array(
'driver' => 'eloquent',
'model' => 'User',
'table' => 'users'
)
),
'reminder' => array(
'email' => 'emails.auth.reminder',
'table' => 'password_reminders',
'expire' => 60,
),
);

Answer 1

You haven't declared any routes pointing to /admin/{username} . That's the reason it can't be found by laravel.
Here is an example:
In your route files
Route::get('/admin/{username}', 'SessionsController#getByUserName');
I strongly advice you to use named routes. They are a lot easier to manage, even if your application gets bigger.
For example
In your route files
Route::get('/admin/{username}',array('as' => 'admin.username', 'uses'=>'SessionsController#getByUserName'));
Then you can call the url that points to the certain controller either using
URL::route('admin.username')(inside views) or
Redirect::route('admin.username') (inside controller)
You can also pass variables using an array. like this
URL::route('admin.username',array($user->username))
