Routing problems with Lumen 404 error.

Hi there! A friend and I recently tried the Lumen framework and we have encountered some problems.

Basically we when we make a GET/POST petition for example through a simple form with action="contact" the resultant URL looks something like this

http://localhost/public/contact?name=John&email=someEmailATemail.com

and it should be something like

http://localhost/public/contact/John/someEmailatemail.com

so when we tried to route it like this

$app->post('contact/{name}/{email}', 'ContactController@sendEmail');

We get an 404 error bacause its doesn't match it, even if we try something like this:

$app->post('contact?name={name}&email={email}', 'ContactController@sendEmail');

We get the same 404 error.

We are using xampp over windows, but we also tried Homestead and vagrant and we got the same problem.

Mod_rewrite is installed and working and I have my .htaccess file under the public folder with the default content:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    RewriteEngine On

    # Redirect Trailing Slashes...
    RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

    # Handle Front Controller...
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>

If I try to route any get petition like:

$app->get('contact/{name}/{email}', 'ContactController@sendEmail');

and type on the browser adressbar

http://localhost/public/contact/John/someEmailATemail.com

it works perfectly.

Thank you all for the time and help!
