无法将文件上传到服务器Laravel

Question

I'm trying to add some products to my database and I have to upload photo of this product. I've made a controller and view but when I click Create I've got an error

Unable to create the "/uploads/products/" directory

Here is my code:
Controller

public function postAddProduct(){
    $destinationPath = '';
    $filename        = '';
    $newId = Product::max('id')+1;
    $validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), array(
        'name' => 'required',       
        'description' => 'required',            
        'partner_link' => 'required',
        'image'=>'required'
    ));
    if (Input::hasFile('image')) {
        $file            = Input::file('image');
        $destinationPath = public_path().'/uploads/products/';
        $filename        = $newId.'.'.$file->getClientOriginalExtension();
        $uploadSuccess   = $file->move($destinationPath, $filename);
    }

    if($validator->passes()){
        $product = new Product;
        $product->name = Input::get('name');
        $product->description = Input::get('description');
        $product->category_id = Input::get('category');
        $product->partner_link = Input::get('partner_link');
        $product->photo = $filename;
        $product->save();   

        return Redirect::back();
    }else{
        return Redirect::back()->withErrors($validator)->withInput();
    }



}

View:

{{ Form::open(array('url'=>'user/admin/products/addd', 'files' => true, 'class'=>'col-md-4', 'style'=> 'float:none; margin: 0 auto', 'id'=>'register-form')) }}
            <h2 class="form-signin-heading">Add Product</h2>    
            {{ Form::text('name', null, array('class'=>'form-control', 'placeholder'=>'Name')) }}    
            {{ Form::textarea('description', null, array('class'=>'form-control', 'placeholder'=>'Description')) }}
            {{ Form::text('partner_link', null, array('class'=>'form-control', 'placeholder'=>'Partner link')) }}
            {{Form::label('category', 'Category: ', array('class' => 'field-name'))}}
            <select name="category">
                <?php $i = 0; ?>
                @foreach($categories as $category)      
                    <optgroup label="{{$category['name']}}">
                    @foreach($category['subcategories'] as $sub)
                        <option value="{{$sub->id}}">{{$sub->name}}</option>
                    @endforeach
                    </optgroup>
                @endforeach
            </select>
            <div class="clearfix"></div>                
            {{Form::file('image', array('style' => 'margin-bottom: 10px'))}}
            {{ Form::submit('Add', array('class'=>'btn btn-large btn-primary btn-block'))}}
        {{ Form::close() }}             

Update

Current bootstrap/paths.php file:

return array(       
    'app' => __DIR__.'/../app',
    'public' => __DIR__.'/../public',
    'base' => __DIR__.'/..',
    'storage' => __DIR__.'/../app/storage',  
);

Answer 1

Sounds like the public/uploads/products folder does not exist, and Laravel does not have permission to create it.

Try create the folder manually, make sure Laravel has writable access to it by running chmod 775 public/uploads/products . Then try the code again.
