Route::controller('/', 'LoginController');
//For admin
Route::group(array('prefix' => 'admin'), function() {
Route::get('/', 'admin\LoginController#index');
Route::get('/dashboard', 'admin\LoginController#show');
Route::get('/Logout','admin\LoginController#logout');

Yes Here is LoginController of user
<?php
class LoginController extends BaseController {
public function getIndex()
{
if(Auth::check())
{
return Redirect::to('/user/home');
}
return View::make('login.index');
}
public function postIndex()
{
$username = Input::get('username');
$password = Input::get('password');
if (Auth::attempt(['username' => $username, 'password' => $password]))
{
return Redirect::intended('/user/home');
}
return Redirect::back()
->withInput()
->withErrors('Sorry,Username or password is incorrect');
}
public function getLogin()
{
return Redirect::to('/');
}
public function getLogout()
{
Auth::logout();
return Redirect::to('/');
}
}
Admin Login Controller
<?php
namespace admin;
class LoginController extends \BaseController {
public function showLogin() {
return \View::make('admin.login');
}
public function index()
{
return \View::make('admin.index');
}
public function store()
{
$username = \Input::get('username');
$password = md5(\Input::get('password'));
if ($mm=\DB::select('select * from admin where uname = ? and password = ?', array($username, $password)))
{
\Session::put('admin', $mm);

$tt=\Session::get('admin');
return \View::make('admin.dashboard');
}
public function Logout()

\Session::flush('admin');
return \Redirect::to('/admin');
}
}

Answer 1

The problem is that Route::controller('/') is catching all requests that only have one segment. that means /admin as well. It then tries to find a getAdmin() method in the user LoginController which obviously doesn't exist.
You basically have two options here.
1. Change the route order
Routes are searched in the order you register them. If you place the admin group before the other route everything will work as expected:
Route::group(array('prefix' => 'admin'), function() {
Route::get('/', 'admin\LoginController#index');
Route::get('/dashboard', 'admin\LoginController#show');
Route::get('/Logout','admin\LoginController#logout');
Route::resource('/setting','admin\SettingController');
});
Route::controller('/', 'LoginController');
2. Make explicit routes
Instead of using Route::controller('/') you could specify each route:
Route::get('/', 'LoginController#getIndex');
Route::get('login', 'LoginController#getLogin');
// etc...
Route::group(array('prefix' => 'admin'), function() {
Route::get('/', 'admin\LoginController#index');
Route::get('/dashboard', 'admin\LoginController#show');
Route::get('/Logout','admin\LoginController#logout');
Route::resource('/setting','admin\SettingController');
});
