Answer 1

GET         /delete_task/:id         controllers.Data.deleteTask(id:String) 

• can be the missing '/'
• Or, since you are providing value from the URL, which isn't actually a POST behaviour
• Or, if you were really trying to send POST data then, deleteTask(id:String) don't need to provide arguement type
