Laravel 5.1 eloquent tries to INSERT into DB instead of UPDATE


laravel eloquent

You need to set a variable to the found item

$m = $m->whereField($field)->first();if ($m->exists()) {$m->anotherField = $value;$m->save();}

As you have it now, $m is only refering to new Model(), not to the found item.

laravel eloquent

You could also do:

$m = $m->whereField($field)->firstOrFail();

//catch exception... (log or something else)

$m->anotherField = $field;$m->save();

Doing this will let you catch the exception so you can log and display an error page as necessary. To catch the ModelNotFoundException, add some logic to your app/Exceptions/Handler.php file.
