Can’t find the php controller with Laravel

Question

Hello guys I’m starting with the Standard, I’ve come across a problem. I created the controller, the routes, but even so, it’s giving me the following error:

Class App Http Controllers Contact2controller does not exist.

What should I do, guys? I already searched the net, but without success. Thanks.

For better understanding, the following is the code.

Controller:

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class Contato2Controller.php extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        return view('welcome');
    }

    /**
     * Show the form for creating a new resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function enviar(Request $request)
    {
        $contato = new Contato();
        $contato->nome = $request->get('nome');
        $contato->email = $request->get('email');
        $contato->mensagem = $request->get('mensagem');
        $contato->save();

        echo "Dados armazenados com sucesso! Código: " .$contato->id;
    }

    public function lista()
    {
        return view('lista', array('contatos'=>Contatos::all()));
    }
}

Routes:

Route::get('/','Contato2Controller@index');
Route::post('/enviar','Contato2Controller@enviar');
Route::get('/lista','Contato2Controller@lista');

OBS: I’m using version 5.1 of the Standard.

Assuming the routes are correct and the naming of names is in accordance with the standards of the Laravel, the problem should be here:

class Contato2Controller.php extends Controller
{
...

left a . php, so there really is no Contact2controller controller (there is only Contact2controller.php). So solving is kind of like this:

class Contato2Controller extends Controller
    {
    ...

The Laravel has a command line tool to make the automatic generation of both the controller and the route, called Artisan.
