When i am using custom routes file such as 'routes/admin.php' its working but when i am using 'auth' middleware its not woeking properly in laravel 11

Question

For all of my admin route i want to using separate file 'routes/admin.php', its working fine i can visit all the routes, but when i use middleware 'auth' and i visited admin routes its redirecting to my home page. but i still cannot visit my guest routes like '/sign-in, /sign-up' cause i am allready logged in,

Note: Wen i used 'routes/web.php' all of my middleware is working fine.

How can i solve this issue??

advance thanks to all!

routes/admin.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::view('/dashboard', 'pages.backend.dashboard');

bootstrap.app.php

<?php

use App\Http\Middleware\AdminMiddleware;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Application;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Configuration\Exceptions;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Configuration\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
    ->withRouting(
        web: __DIR__ . '/../routes/web.php',
        commands: __DIR__ . '/../routes/console.php',
        health: '/up',
        then: function () {
            Route::middleware('auth')
                ->group(base_path('routes/admin.php'));
        },
    )
    ->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
        $middleware->alias([
            'admin' => AdminMiddleware::class,
        ]);
    })
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {
        //
    })->create();

You forgot to include the 'web' middleware to your custom routes.This may cause this issue. Try including the 'web' middleware before 'auth' and then see if that solves your problem. The new route definition should look like this

return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
    ->withRouting(
        web: __DIR__ . '/../routes/web.php',
        commands: __DIR__ . '/../routes/console.php',
        health: '/up',
        then: function () {
            Route::middleware(['web','auth'])
                ->group(base_path('routes/admin.php'));
        },
    )
    ->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
        $middleware->alias([
            'admin' => AdminMiddleware::class,
        ]);
    })
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {`enter code here`
        //
    })->create();
