I followed laravel documentation about Form Request Validation. and im not sure if get it correctly. i created a make:request EmployeeRequest to validate an employee form. but for some reasons it only redirects me to a blank page with "forbidden" as message
// this is my request code
public function rules()
{
return [
'email' => 'bail|required|email|unique:employees|max:255',
'first_name' => 'bail|required|max:50|min:2',
'last_name' => 'bail|required|max:50|min:2',
'date_of_birth' => 'bail|required',
'contact_number' => 'bail|required|max:11',
'image' => 'bail|required|image',
];
}
//then i called it in my controller like this
public function store(EmployeeRequest $request)
{
//my code if everything is valid
}
(when entering invalid data) it only redirects me to a blank page with an echo of forbidden. im not sure if i understand it correctly. but im expecting that it will automatically redirects to the previous page with errors
