I get an error when uploading an image and I think it must be a permissions issue. I'm fairly sure I've managed to set up the permissions correctly but I can seem to get the rid of the following error...
Exception in Local.php line 106:
Impossible to create the root directory "/tmp/phpTabBw1".
I've set 755 on the storage and bootstrap folders.
It works fine on my local machine through MAMP Pro
Fairly new to Laravel so perhaps I've done something wrong. the image should get resized using Glide after upload but I don't know if that is relevant.
Any pointers greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I signed up for a trial of Forge to try and rule out my server setup and this has exactly the same issue so the problem must lie with my application.
I've checked the permissions on the tmp folder on both servers and they both appear to be set to 777 by default.
Anyone?
Where are you trying to save the file? if it's storage/someDir/file.png, storage and someDir must both have the proper permissions, not just storage.
Thanks for the reply @Cronix
I'm saving the image like this...
$image_name = 'logo-' . $client->id. '-' . $client->slug . '.' . $image->getClientOriginalExtension();
$glide = \GlideImage::create($image)->modify([
'w' => 300,
'h' => 300
])->save(base_path() . '/resources/assets/img/clients/' . $image_name);
The resources directory and all the directories beneath it have the same permissions as the storage directory (I did not set those, they just seem to be like that by default).
The error suggest it is having trouble creating a directory in the tmp directory.
I'm not sure where to go from here. Clearly I have a logic problem somewhere.
Please or to participate in this conversation.
