   +--------+------------------------------------+-----------+---------------------------------+----------------+---------------+
    | Domain | URI                                | Name      | Action                          | Before Filters | After Filters |
    +--------+------------------------------------+-----------+---------------------------------+----------------+---------------+
    |        | GET index                          | index     | Closure                         |                |               |
    |        | GET admin/index                    | dashboard | Closure                         |                |               |
    |        | GET logout                         | logout    | Closure                         |                |               |
    |        | POST auth                          | auth      | Closure                         | csrf           |               |
    |        | GET login                          | login     | Closure                         |                |               |
    |        | GET admin/admin/profile/{_missing} |           | ProfileController@missingMethod |                |               |
    +--------+------------------------------------+-----------+---------------------------------+----------------+---------------+

my Current route is:

Route::resource('profile' , 'ProfileController', array('as'=>'profile') );

and i want to change that to :

Route::controller('admin/profile', 'ProfileController', array('index'=>'profile.index') );

how to resolve this problem?

This is not an error, Resource and Controller routes are completely different things.

Resource routes have a predefined list of routes (index, create, store, delete, update). If you don't have the method set in your controller it will still work, unless someone hit that route.

Controller routes relies on your controller methods:

public function getIndex() {}
public function getCreate() {}
public function postStore() {}

Methods names are predefined as

<http method><your action name>()

If those methods are not present in your controller, Laravel will not show them in your routes list.

So, just create a

public function getIndex() {}

In your controller and run

php artisan route

Again.

Are those routes inside a `route::group`? – Antonio Carlos Ribeiro Feb 07 '14 at 19:52

Use :

Route::resource('profile, 'ProfileController', array('as' => 'profile', 'names' => array('index' => 'profile.index')));

Instead of either the routes above.

I did read your question, and I agreed with they guy who gave an answer in [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19102534/laravel-4-routeresource-vs-routecontroller-which-to-use) post. Using ::controller is a bad practice and should be avoided. For that reason, I recommended the above line of code that should accomplish your requirements. – Patrick Feb 08 '14 at 19:32
and your offer is `resource` :) – DolDurma Feb 08 '14 at 21:15
