Route [RemindersController#postRemind] not defined error in Laravel4 - php

Question

I was implementing Laravel's password reminded function but hitting this error:
Route [RemindersController#postRemind] not defined.
I am using Laravel 4 and absolutely new to Laravel.I used
php artisan auth:reminders-controller
to create RemindersController.
<?php
class RemindersController extends Controller {
public function getRemind()
{
return View::make('password_remind');
}
public function postRemind()
{
Password::remind(Input::only('email'), function($message)
{
$message->subject('Password Reminder');
});
}
public function getReset($token = null)
{
if (is_null($token)) App::abort(404);
return View::make('password.reset')->with('token', $token);
}
public function postReset()
{
$credentials = Input::only(
'email', 'password', 'password_confirmation', 'token'
);
$response = Password::reset($credentials, function($user, $password)
{
$user->password = Hash::make($password);
$user->save();
});
switch ($response)
{
case Password::INVALID_PASSWORD:
case Password::INVALID_TOKEN:
case Password::INVALID_USER:
return Redirect::back()->with('error', Lang::get($response));
case Password::PASSWORD_RESET:
return Redirect::to('/');
}
}
}
I created view password_remind.blade.php which is shown below :
#extends('layouts.default_layout')
#section('content')
<div class="row" style="min-height: 376px">
<div class="col-sm-4">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4" style="padding-top: 70px;">
<div class="login">
<form action="{{action('RemindersController#postRemind')}}" method="POST">
<input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email">
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
#stop
In root I added Route::get('forgotPassword', 'RemindersController#getRemind');
The url http://localhost/laravel_work/public/forgotPassword gives
Route [RemindersController#postRemind] not defined
error.
Where am I wrong ? I cannot find the mistake.Pls Help Me :(*

Welp, if you look at your form you have action="{{action('RemindersController#postRemind')}}"
But according to you, the only route you added was RemindersController#getRemind
I'm assuming you want just the get to quickly check the view right now, but maybe the action() is actually eagerly looking for that non-existent route.
Is your app dying when you post the form or when you get the view? Either way defining the route for the post like you did with the get should fix it.
