laravel 5, form submit redirect to unknown url value

I just wondering in my project. I have a form that can be access at localhost/app/esetting/mymail and this is the code in the view:

....
 <form action="{{ url( 'app/esetting/emailautomsave' ) }}" class="form-horizontal" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
                         {{ csrf_field() }}
...
<input type="submit" value="save">
</form>

but when I try to click for form submission, I expect it to go to app/esetting/emailautomsave and calls it controller which is on my SettingsController.php.

public function postEmailautomsave(Request $request){
...
}

but it redirects to localhost/app/mymail? and give me this error:

NotFoundHttpException in Controller.php line 93: 
Controller method not found.

this sounds weird on my end. can anyone have an idea about this? I am sure I have done the right this specially on my routes.php

Route::group([ 'prefix' => 'app', 'middleware' => 'auth' ], function() {
....
Route::controller('esetting', 'SettingController');
Route::get( 'esetting/mymail', 'SettingController@viewEmailAutom' ); // view for the form to display
....

If you use Route::controller you need to define you methods according to the route. E.g.

Route::controller('esetting', 'SettingController');

Will look for SettingController@getIndex when you visit http:://yoursite.com/esetting

To reach SettingController@postEmailAutomsave() you would need to go to the route http:://yoursite.com/esetting/emmail/automsave

I have not used Route::controller myself, I got used too (and now prefer) naming them individually. But this should do the trick.

Just simply define:

Route::post('esetting/mymail/emailautomsave', 'SettingController@postEmailautomsave');

I know that You'll say: "I've defined Route::controller, so it will look for it atuomatically."

But for me is best to have routes defined exactly.

also if:

it redirects to localhost/app/mymail? and give me this error:

NotFoundHttpException in Controller.php line 93: Controller method not found.

maybe it means that some middleware is redirecting You there?

You can check it by simply doing this:

public function postEmailautomsave(Request $request){
  die('test');
  ...
}

if it will redirect so it mean that some function was called before and redirect browser to app/mymail.
