Why isn't my Laravel route working? mod_rewrite enabled

Question

I have the simple code in my routes.php:

Route::get('/', function()
{
    return View::make('hello');
});


Route::get('/mypage', function()
{
    echo 'mypage';
});

Visiting mysite.dev/ will return the hello view. However, visiting mysite.dev/mypage gives me a 404. In my phpinfo(); I'm showing mod_rewrite enabled (as seen here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u972n1rcdbsambg/Screenshot%202014-07-09%2022.27.04.png)

Any idea why this wouldn't work? I'm running Mac OS X Mavericks with apache2 and PHP with Laravel 4.

Have you changed this from

AllowOverride None

to

AllowOverride All

in your apache2.conf?

You should try returning echo:

Route::get('/mypage', function()
{
    return echo 'mypage';
});

I hope this helped, cheers!

Could you check (assuming you are using apache) that your override settings is set to all. You can find the folder in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*.conf

Sounds like you could be missing the .htaccess file - it's super easy to miss this if you're copying files with finder on OS X because dotfiles are hidden by default.

Check that this file is in your /public directory - https://github.com/laravel/laravel/blob/master/public/.htaccess
