Laravel Nova, route not found

Question

I've installed Laravel Nova (using Laravel 5.6). App\Providers\NovaServiceProvider::class is registered in my config/app.php file. But when I go to https://localhost:1234/nova I get a 404 error.

I have cleared my caches and run a composer dump-autoload. How can I get this route working?

EDIT: When I run php artisan route:list the nova-api routes are there but there is no route for nova.

Also, the migrations were not copied across after nova:install. I am working with an existing Laravel project.

Answer 1

Verify App\Providers\NovaServiceProvider is in your provider list.

• Go to config/app.php
• Add App\Providers\NovaServiceProvider::class, to the providers

Without this, it is possible to see the Nova panel, though it remains empty. A fresh install at this time will show a "Help" Card on the Dashboard.

Answer 2

I ran into this problem too. Add Nova::routes(); to your routes/web.php and reload /nova in your browser.
