Laravel always returns 404
I am using Laravel as backend (REST API) and AngularJS as front end (consumer API). I would like to have redirects:
/api --> /backend/public (Laravel)
/ --> /frontend/app (AngularJs)
Frontend works without issue, but Laravel always returns 404 for existing routes (NotFoundHttpException in RouteCollection.php).
Where am I going wrong?
My folder structure:
/var/www
-- .htaccess (1)
-- frontend
---- app
------ index.html
------ .htaccess (2)
-- backend
---- public
------ index.php
------ .htaccess (3)
.htaccess (1)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes...
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Backend
RewriteRule ^api(.*) backend/public/$1 [L]
# Frontend
RewriteRule ^(.*) frontend/app/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
.htaccess (2)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.html [L]
</IfModule>
.htaccess (3)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /api/
# Redirect Trailing Slashes...
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Apache configuration
<VirtualHost *:80>
...
DocumentRoot /var/www/
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
...
</VirtualHost>
Part backend/app/Http/routes.php
<?php
Route::get('/', function()
{
return 'Hello World';
});
Route::get('/test', function()
{
return 'Hello Test';
});
Every request to backend ( http://domain.com/api*
) returns NotFoundHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 145
from Laravel (this is how it works backend/public/index.php
), for example:
http://domain.com/api
http://domain.com/api/test
Thank you for your time.

You need to move the routes into a route group with a prefix api
. For example:
Route::group(['prefix' => 'api'], function(){
Route::get('/', function()
{
return 'Hello World';
});
Route::get('/test', function()
{
return 'Hello Test';
});
});
The reason is that your Laravel application is not served in the root domain, but inside a child folder. Therefore, the URI of each request starts with api
.
