Hi all - Just starting to figure out Livewire on a vanilla Laravel 8 install and am hitting a 404 error on the dashboard from the @livewire('navigation-menu').
I've updated by .env file
APP_URL=http://localhost/dev/qkAdminPnl/todos/
and my config/livewire.php
'asset_url' => env('APP_URL', 'http://localhost'),
and have included the @LivewireStyles and @LivewireScripts in the app.blade.php file
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

@livewireScripts

I must still be missing something, but not seeing it. All help is appreciated! Thanks - Rick
UPDATE: changed the livewire.php to
'asset_url' => url('/')
from
'asset_url' => env('APP_URL', 'http://localhost/dev/qkAdminPnl/todos'),
and that resolved the 404 error. NOTE: 'asset_url' noted originally is incorrect, the above is the correct value.) Still, any thoughts on why one works and the other doesn't or what this setting is looking for, are appreciated!
FURTHER UPDATE: with 'asset_url' => url('/'), the 404 error are cleared, but command line directive:
php artisan make:model Projects
fails with the following:
Argument 2 passed to Illuminate\Routing\UrlGenerator::__construct() must be an instance of Illuminate\Http\Request, null given, called in C:\xampp\htdocs\dev\qkAdminPnl\todos\vendor\laravel\framework\src\
Illuminate\Routing\RoutingServiceProvider.php on line 65
Resetting the value to:
'asset_url' => env('APP_URL')
then succeeds. I'm guessing this is a relative-path issue, but your advice is appreciated!
Resolved this by launching through laravel server (php artisan serve) rather than calling it directly from localhost.
On my UI, I have a list of items and a delete button implemented via a form. Something I've done many times without issue, but now I have one that just doesn't want to work no matter what I've tried. It just doesn't like this particular route for some reason.. I just get a 404.
I've tried clearing the cache, the route cache, reoptimyzing, composer dump-autoload, The route can be seen if I do a route:list https://www.myloweslife.run/
Seeing the code would be helpful. Look for: Spelling errors, differences between dashes and underscores, differences between upper- and lower-case duplicate routes position of routes in web.php Good luck!
Just the following code to your admin or control panel routes:
use Livewire\Controllers\HttpConnectionHandler;
Route::post('livewire/message/{name}', [HttpConnectionHandler::class, '__invoke']);
And remember to override the url using this one linear:
<script>
window.livewire_app_url = '{{route('admin.index')}}';
</script>
