Laravel redirect on decrypt fail

I’m passing an encrypted URL to my controller and I want to decrypt the URL. If the decryption fails then I want to redirect to a page and show an error message.

Currently if the decrypt fails if throw the error and dies:

IlluminateContractsEncryptionDecryptException
The payload is invalid.

How do I redirect on fail? below is the function I’m using that isn’t working:

Link

<a href="{{ route('AdminUsers.test', encrypt("test123")) }}">test</a>

Which creates the URL:

/domain/users/test/eyJpdiI6ImFiTmZYRUY5K2ZqR0txeHNjejY2dnc9PSIsInZhbHVlIjoicktVTWVaY0tMSXlWdEhYWjdWbWtsQT09IiwibWFjIjoiMzcxNWY3ODYyMjI5NWQ2Yjg0MzExODBhMGM4NTlmNTUwMGYwZjFiNTFjZjA2Y2VhNWUxMjBlM2I5YmMzMTY2MiIsInRhZyI6IiJ9

Route:

Route::get('/domain/users/test/{id}', 'users_test')->name('AdminUsers.test')->middleware(['auth:admin']);

Controller

public function users_test($request) {

        try {
            $decrypted = decrypt($request);
        } catch (DecryptException $e) {
            return redirect()->route('AdminUsers.users_overview')->with('error', 'Something went wrong!');
        }

    }

If I do:

try {
            $decrypted = decrypt($request);
            dd($decrypted);
        } catch (DecryptException $e) {
            return redirect()->route('AdminUsers.users_overview')->with('error', 'Something went wrong!');
        }
``
I get "test123"

If I change the URL to:

/domain/users/test/eyJXXXXXXXXXXX

I get:

IlluminateContractsEncryptionDecryptException
The payload is invalid.

If I add a dd($e) in the catch it doesn’t run as it doesn’t get to it as Lavarel throws it’s error first.

    i just tested this with a test route

    Route::get('test/{id}', function (Request $request, $id) {

 try {
       $decrypted = decrypt($request);
       dd($decrypted);
   } catch (IlluminateContractsEncryptionDecryptException $e) {
       dd('i was able to see error', $e);
       return redirect()->route('AdminUsers.users_overview')->with('error', 'Something went wrong!');
   }

});

    and it worked
    my guess is that this is happening in your case because exception is being thrown by a middleware (what do you have in your auth:admin middleware) or the routing layer before the hitting controller.

    try with a test route please

    Your route parameter is named id:

    Route::get('/domain/users/test/{id}'

    which means your controller function expects a variable named $id, not $request.

    public function users_test($id) {
