So I'm trying to create a new directory in C:/..../public/videos
folder when somebody uploads a video, using the following code:
if ($request->hasFile('video')) {
$newDir = public_path('videos\\' . $story->story_id);
Storage::makeDirectory( $newDir, 0755, true);
$request->file('video')->move($newDir);
}
But I get this error:
ErrorException in Local.php line 350: mkdir(): Invalid argument in Local.php line 350 at HandleExceptions->handleError('2', 'mkdir(): Invalid argument', 'C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\vendor\league\flysystem\src\Adapter\Local.php', '350', array('dirname' => 'C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\public\videos\31', 'config' => object(Config), 'location' => 'C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\storage\app\C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\public\videos\31', 'umask' => '0', 'visibility' => 'public')) at mkdir('C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\storage\app\C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\public\videos\31', '493', true) in Local.php line 350 at Local->createDir('C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\public\videos\31', object(Config)) in Filesystem.php line 259 at Filesystem->createDir('C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\public\videos\31') in FilesystemAdapter.php line 276
It seems like makeDirectory automatically adds C:\xampp\htdocs\qanda2\storage\app\
in front of my path.
Is there any workaround for this? I've been struggling with this for a while now and I can't find anything about this issue.
