Laravel url showing not found error

Question

I'm a beginner in Laravel

I have just installed Laravel to my local server using xampp in E drive instead of c. When i opened this url http://localhost/laravel/public/ its working fine. I have created hello controller but when trying to open this url: http://localhost/laravel/public/hello getting page not found error.

I tried all htacess methods but still not working. Please help me to access controller.

Have you tried running `php artisan serve` on your command line? — paudel, Feb 23 '18 at 06:48
I have used this code in routes.php file. Route::get('/hello',function(){ return 'Hello World!'; }); — Nisha Sharma, Feb 23 '18 at 06:48
@AlexeyMezenin Can you share the exact code to place in which file as i tried all the codes — Nisha Sharma, Feb 23 '18 at 06:52
The folder `public` should be your server's document root and not turn up in any url. — brombeer, Feb 23 '18 at 06:59

Since you are using XAMPP, it will be better for you to register a new virtual host on your xampp's Apache. Just go to /path-to-xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

And add this code

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName mylaravel-app.local
    DocumentRoot "e:/path-to-xampp/htdocs/laravel/public"
    <Directory  "e:/path-to-xampp/htdocs/laravel/public/">
        Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require local
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

After that, you save it and restart your XAMPP to refresh its DNS. Then you can now view your app on http://mylaravel-app.local

UPDATE for sample code:

// app\Http\Controllers\Hello.php
class Hello extends Controller {

    public function index() {
        echo "Hello world!";
    }

    ...
}

// routes:
Route::get('/hello', 'Hello@index');

// then you test it on http://mylaravel-app.local/hello

You'll need to learn the basics first from `routing`, `Controllers` and `views`. https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/routing – Dexter Bengil Feb 23 '18 at 07:07
okay I will. But i also followed this article: https://tutorials.kode-blog.com/laravel-hello-world. But it not worked for me – Nisha Sharma Feb 23 '18 at 07:09
I have added this code in routes.php file but getting 404 page error Route::get('/hello', 'Hello@index'); – Nisha Sharma Feb 23 '18 at 07:23

You also need to start your laravel server. First go to your project root directory from CMD. Than run Command php artisan serve in cmd. so the laravel server is started. After this you not get error of page not found !
