Laravel post route returning error 500

Question

my route

Route::post('register', function()
{
    return "POST SUCCESS!";
});

works fine if I chane it to "get". As soon as I change it to post (and use postman to actually send a post request) I get an error 500. Its driving me crazy and I cant find the answer..

There is also nothing in the php error log... o_0

which version? L4 or L5? – Limon Monte Mar 24 '15 at 10:21 — Limon Monte, Mar 24 '15 at 10:21

most probably you forgot to insert ```` to your form. – Limon Monte Mar 24 '15 at 10:36
what if I'm making a post request without a form, with ajax or something else... api-style – Pero44 Mar 24 '15 at 10:38
If I understand this correctly. CSRF is mostly used for form data. If I have a RESTful API , is it safe to turn it off? – Pero44 Mar 24 '15 at 10:49
@Pero44 if you're happy with my answer you can accept it. – Limon Monte Mar 24 '15 at 11:28
