Posting of form returns as "Object Not Found" on localhost

It never seems to go right for me on this course. :D Tried to fix this on my own but I'm not sure what to do.

I submit the form on localhost/composer/contact and I get this,

Object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Error 404

Here's my index.php file.

<?php 

//require autoload to include all of composers libraries
require "vendor/autoload.php";

// use London time to log errors and warnings
date_default_timezone_set("Europe/London");

use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler;

//create a new instance of monolog
//$log = new Logger('name');   //new monolog logger instance
//$log->pushHandler(new StreamHandler('app.txt', Logger::WARNING));  //use object object operator

//$log->addWarning('Warning: ');

$app = new \Slim\Slim(array(
    'view' => new \Slim\Views\Twig()  // set view to be the Twig class
));  //new slim object instance

$view = $app->view();
$view->parserOptions = array(
 'debug' => true  //set debug to true   
);

$view->parserExtensions = array(
    new \Slim\Views\TwigExtension(),   //helpers
);

/*object behaviours*/
$app->get('/', function() use ($app)  {
   $app->render('about.twig');
})->name('home');

$app->get('/contact', function() use ($app)  {
   $app->render('contact.twig');
})->name('contact');/**/

$app->post('/contact', function() use ($app)  {
  $name = $app->request->post('name');
  $email = $app->request->post('email');  
  $msg = $app->request->post('msg');

  if(!empty($name) && !empty($email) && !empty($msg)){


  } else {
      //message the user that there was a problem
      $app->redirect('/contact');
  }


});


//Run the slim application
$app->run();

//echo "Hello, World!";
?>

I'm on localhost. But I've submitted my latest work of my Repo.

Try deleting the; use Monolog\Logger; use Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler;

Noticed it wasn't present in the teachers code
