Laravel route method DELETE not working

In my routes.php, when I have:

    Route::delete('page/{id}', function ($id)
    {
        return "deleting $id";
    });

And I send a delete or get request using Postman, This throws a MethodNotAllowedHttpException.

When I change routes.php:

    Route::get('page/{id}', function ($id)
    {
        return "deleting $id";
    });

It responds the string deleting... in response to GET, DELETE and PUT! But the HTTP code is 403.

It just throws a MethodNotAllowedHttpException on a POST request.

This problem seems to occur only on remote server and it works as expected on localhost.

Is there anything in Laravel that maybe redirects or changes methods to GET?

It's because Apache doesn't allow DELETE requests, and that's why the response code is a "403 forbidden".

Add this to .htaccess after the Laravel default codes:

<Limit DELETE>
  Order deny,allow
  Allow from all
</Limit>

Try to add this to your form, above delete button:

{!! method_field('DELETE') !!}
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE">
