How to override image with Image Intervention Laravel 8

Hello everyone! So I have this form:

<form method="POST" action="{{ url('/save') }}" enctype="multipart/form-data">
	<input type="file" name="logo" />
	<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

And I need to upload and override with the same name an existing image at directory public/logos. I tried with:

	Image::make($request->logo)->resize(120, 120)->save(asset($details['logo_path']));

where $details['logo_path'] is actually extracted path from the database (logos/image.jpg).

So in short the user is uploading an image and it overrides the already existing one in the logos folder and stores the path in the database as logos/imageName.jpg. Any idea?

use public_path() instead of asset()

dd($request->logo); // this should be an object

Image::make($request->logo->getRealPath())
    ->resize(120, 120)
    ->save(public_path($details['logo_path']));

@Sergiu17 Not working. It's now only displaying the image name after submit.

 $this->validate($request, [
            'file' => 'required|image|mimes:jpg,jpeg,png,gif,svg|max:2048',
        ]);

        $image = $request->file('file');
        $input['file'] = time().'.'.$image->getClientOriginalExtension();
        
        $destinationPath = public_path('/thumbnail');

        $imgFile = Image::make($image->getRealPath());

        $imgFile->resize(150, 150, function ($constraint) {
		    $constraint->aspectRatio();
		})->save($destinationPath.'/'.$input['file']);

        $destinationPath = public_path('/uploads');
        $image->move($destinationPath, $input['file']);

        return back()
        	->with('success','Image has successfully uploaded.')
        	->with('fileName',$input['file']);

Okay, nothing worked. So I got to the conclusion that the form is not getting properly the uploaded file. I think it's not even working right. I have enctype="multipart/form-data" in my form tag and I'm pretty sure I'm doing everything right. I updated the code like that:

$image = $request->file('logo');
$name_gen = $details['logo_path'].'.'.$image->getClientOriginalExtension();
Image::make($image)->resize(120,120)->save(public_path('/logos/' . $name_gen));

and I'm getting error Call to a member function getClientOriginalExtension() on null.

Any ideas?
