File or Image do not save in cPanel live server but save in local host

I have used this code to save image or file:

$image1 = Input::file('deducted_file' . $i); $destination = 'uploads/';

        if ($image1 != null) {
            $filename1 = Str::lower(
                pathinfo($image1->getClientOriginalName(), PATHINFO_FILENAME)
                . '-'. uniqid(). '.'. $image1->getClientOriginalExtension()
            );
            $image1->move($destination, $filename1);
            $feesadditional->deducted_amount_file = $filename1;
        }

it works in local host but do not work in cPanel live server that is it do not give any error when i choose and save a file or image but it saves nothing in database. In local host I changed php ini file to file enable true. I think I have to enable it in cPanel but I dont know how to change this php.ini file in cPanel.
