[FIXED] Basic routing generates a 404 in Laravel

Issue

I'm trying to use the Laravel framework in building my application. However, I'm getting stuck with routing.

Route

Route::get('ecatalogs', 
    array('as' => 'ecatalog_latest', 'uses' => 'ecatalogs@latest'));

Controller

class Catalogs_Controller extends Base_Controller
{
    public $restful = true;

    public function get_latest()
    {
        return "wohoooooo!";
    }
}

My localhost files are stored in /Users/ariefbayu/Sites/ and my Laravel application is stored in /Users/ariefbayu/Sites/ecatalog/. Inside this directory, I have an info.php file to confirm if my path settings are working, and they do. However, when I navigate to http://localhost/ecatalog/public/index.php/ecatalogs it always returns a 404 error. I know this is basic, but I don't know why this doesn't work.

FYI, I'm using a MAMP server, and I've set all source files' access permissions to 777 to test if this is a permission problem.

Solution

Route::get('ecatalogs', array('as'=>'ecatalog_latest', 'uses'=>'ecatalogs@latest'));

Notice the ecatalogs@latest pointer. This tells Laravel to call the get_latest() method on the Ecatalog_Controller.

And this is your controller Catalogs_Controller and function get_latest(). You need to call the get_latest() with this :

Route::get('ecatalogs', array('as'=>'ecatalog_latest', 'uses'=>'catalogs@latest'));
