It sounds like you're encountering a common issue where the route is not correctly accepting POST requests. This could be due to several reasons, such as route caching, incorrect route definitions, or middleware issues. Here's a step-by-step guide to troubleshoot and solve the problem:

  1. Clear Route Cache: Since you mentioned that it works locally but not on another environment, it might be a caching issue. Run the following command to clear the route cache:
php artisan route:clear
  1. Check Route Definition: Ensure that the route for admin/login is defined to accept POST requests in your routes/web.php or routes/api.php file. It should look something like this:
Route::post('admin/login', 'AdminController@login');
  1. Check CSRF Protection: Laravel includes CSRF protection on POST requests by default. Make sure that your login form includes the CSRF token field:
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('admin.login') }}">
    @csrf
    <!-- form fields -->
</form>
  1. Middleware Issues: If you have custom middleware applied to the route, ensure that it's not interfering with the request. You can temporarily disable middleware for testing purposes by commenting it out in the Kernel.php file.

  2. Check Filament Configuration: Since you're using Filament, make sure that you have followed all the necessary steps for setting up authentication as per the Filament documentation.

  3. Inspect Form Action URL: Double-check the action URL of your login form. It should match the URL defined in your routes file.

  4. Check .htaccess File: If you're using Apache, ensure that the .htaccess file is correctly configured to handle rewrite rules.

  5. Docker Configuration: Since your project is Docker-based, ensure that your Docker configuration is not causing issues with routing. Check if the web server container is properly configured to handle POST requests.

  6. Environment Configuration: Compare your .env files between local and the environment where the error occurs. Sometimes, environment-specific configurations can lead to unexpected behavior.

  7. Check for Typos: A simple typo in the route definition or form action can cause this issue. Double-check for any typos.

  8. Permissions: Ensure that the storage and bootstrap/cache directories are writable by the web server.

  9. Logs: Check the Laravel logs in storage/logs/laravel.log for any error messages that could provide more insight into the issue.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to provide more specific error messages or debug further to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem.

I encountered the same issue and upon inspecting the network console, I discovered that I was receiving 404 errors for Livewire assets. It turned out that the root document path was the culprit in my case.

@awis 1st thing copy livewire files to public dir

cp -r vendor/livewire/livewire/dist/* public/vendor/livewire/

second in AppServiceProvider::boot():

Livewire::setScriptRoute(function ($handle) {
    return Route::get('/vendor/livewire/livewire.js', $handle);
});

@mazenbassiouni Same here, but all I needed to do was to force the browser cache update by opening the Dev console and refreshing (while the "Disable cache" in the network tab is enabled).
