Ajax failing Laravel with routing
I have a routing issue with laravel on an ajax call, but I really don't understand what could be causing this as what I would have to call ajax and return successfully. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank!
Here is my ajax code
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: baseLocalUrl, //baseLocalUrl= "http://localhost:4567/admin/menuBuilder/1/save"
data:
{
html: $("#comment_area").text()
},
success: function(data){
alert("success!");
}
});
Here is my route
Route::group(array('prefix' => 'admin', 'before' => 'auth'), function()
{
.....
Route::post('menuBuilder/{role}/save' , array('uses' => 'AdminMenuBuilderController@saveHTML' ));
.....
});
Here is my controller method
public function saveHTML($roleId){
//$decodeJson = Input::get('html');
return "success";
}
This is the error I am getting
POST http://localhost:4567/admin/menuBuilder/1/save 500 (Internal Server Error)
Laravel log
production.ERROR: 500 - Exception @ /admin/menuBuilder/1/save

You need to include the CSRF token in the header of your AJAX call. Try the following:
In the HTML block <head>
:
<!-- This is one of the more common ways of accessing your CSRF token. -->
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
And for your AJAX call:
var token = $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: baseLocalUrl,
data: {
html: $("#comment_area").text()
},
// Added the CSRF token to the request header.
header: {"X-CSRF-Token": token},
success: function(data) {
alert("Success!");
}
});
Finally, app/filters.php
change your CSRF filter to:
Route::filter('csrf', function()
{
$token = Request::ajax() ? Request::header('X-CSRF-Token') : Input::get('_token');
if (Session::token() != $token)
{
throw new Illuminate\Session\TokenMismatchException;
}
});
