What causes an error when uploading a Laravel image?

Question

Laravel

Gives such an error.
Can't write image data to path (uploads/img.png)
Here is the code

if(Input::hasFile('file')) {
            $file = Input::file('file');
            $file = Image::make($file)->resize(300, 200)->save('uploads/img.png');
}

When in line

$file = Image::make($file)->resize(300, 200)->save('uploads/img.png');

I remove Uploads and just save it to the public folder, then everything works, how to solve this problem?

Answer 1

Use absolute paths instead of relative ones (about the difference - google and read)
It should be like this
..->save(__DIR__ . '/uploads/img.png');
