Client error

405 405 Method Not Allowed

The URL exists but not for that HTTP method — a GET to an endpoint that only accepts POST, for instance.

Common causes

  • A form posting to the wrong URL.
  • Security modules that block methods like PUT, DELETE or TRACE.

How to fix it

  • Check the allowed methods on the route, and the Allow header in the response — it lists what is accepted.
