Can you execute a curl PUT request to the server? Have you tried adding dav_methods PUT to the config? Also, verify that you have write permissions for the PUT.
Also, you do have {{ method_field('PUT') }} in your form right?

nginx returns 405 (Method Not Allowed) for PUT or DELETE
We are using forge to deploy an standard laravel app.
We use PUT as well as POST, but all puts are rejected by nginx before they even reach laravel:
405 Not Allowed
405 Not Allowed
nginx/1.13.3The nginx config was created by forge.
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
Our app works flawlessly under apache, but PUTs dont work under nginx/forge
We have exhausted all google responses to this problem, including things like this:
error_page 405 = $uri;
Which didnt help.
Our PUTs look like this:
http://www.ourdomain.com/games/reskin/1003/1/savetext Request Method:PUT
Laravel routes are defined like this: Route::put('/games/reskin/{idgame}/{tabnr}/savetext','reskinController@savetexts');
Although its not even hitting laravel.
If we change the PUTs to POSTS, it then hits laravel, but then larvel returns MethodNotAllowedHttpException from ajax calls for no reason, but again only on nginx, works fine under apache. As there is no solution to this,we want to try using PUT (which some have said solves this exception issue).

The PUT is a laravel (php) api call, so there should be no write permissions required. We have not put dav_methods into the nginx conf as putting dav handling on a production server would decrease security. however, we will try it.

Have you included {{ method_field('PUT') }} in your form? Only GET and POST are recognized unless you include this hidden field.

As far as the permissions, you are requesting something to be stored with the PUT request so adequate permissions are required. That is why I asked.
