AJAX Post Request does not work

Hey guys,
I'm new here. I have used CI over the past 10 years and love it. Unfortunately, I'm not getting the hang with everything CI4.
So, I have created a form and when I submit it with AJAX (POST), I am getting no result. After further examinations I have come to realize that no data is passed when I execute a Ajax-Request with the type POST.

PHP Code:

public function index() 


PHP Code:

{ 


PHP Code:

$view["head_title"] = 'Login' . TITLE; 


PHP Code:

$view["nav_title"] = TITLE; 


PHP Code:

// $js = 'get("#loginBox", "/login/test2/", "");'; 


PHP Code:

$js = 'var xhr = $.ajax({ 


PHP Code:

url: "/login/test/", 


PHP Code:

type: "POST", 


PHP Code:

dataType: "html", 


PHP Code:

// data: "&test=test", 


PHP Code:

data: { name: "John", location: "Boston" }, 


PHP Code:

success: function(result) { alert(result); }, 


PHP Code:

error: function(result, status, error) { alert("result" + result + ", status" + status + ", error" + error); }, 


PHP Code:

});'; 


PHP Code:

$view["js"] = $this->BrainsHTML->js($js); 


PHP Code:

$this->Output->get_views($view, array('login')); 


PHP Code:

}
 
 echo view('show', array('show' => $show));
 }
 
 
 public function test()
 {
 echo csrf_hash();
 echo $this->request->isAJAX();
// print_r($this->request->headers());
 echo $_POST["test"];
// print_r($_GET);
 print_r($this->request->getPost());
// print_r($this->request->getJSON());
// print_r($this->request->getJsonVar());
 print_r($this->request->getGet());
 print_r($this->request->getMethod());
 } 


The alert shows the following:

I have been on this for hours now and I am out of ideas. Please help me and let me know if you need more infos about the setup. From where I stand it should be pretty simple, as I have never had an issue with this code in CI3.

Thanks,
Alain

I finally found the solution.

The Rewrite directives in .htaccess were not set properly. Sorry about that.

first question does it have to be ajax ?

CMS CI4     I use Arch Linux by the way 




Arch Book

I always like to get my forms working first then switch them over to Ajax.
