Error when uploading photos

[fouedmoussi]

i am getting this error message when i try to upload profile pic to my user

[cracker182]

This looks like a permission problem based on you os. Which is the server is running on?

EDIT3: Have trouble too and investigate.

EDIT2: Go to gymie\storage\medialibrary --> rightclick --> security --> add "everyone" with full access rights

Editd: sorry windows I see.
check if the storage folder has full wirte access.

@cracker182 Yes i'm on Windows 10 and i use XAMPP Version: 7.1.14
Includes: Apache 2.4.29, MariaDB 10.1.30, PHP 7.1.14, phpMyAdmin 4.7.7, OpenSSL 1.0.2, XAMPP Control Panel 3.2.2, Webalizer 2.23-04, Mercury Mail Transport System 4.63, FileZilla FTP Server 0.9.41, Tomcat 7.0.56 (with mod_proxy_ajp as connector), Strawberry Perl 7.0.56 Portable

Unfortunately this doesn't solve the problem.
PS: i have another laravel project with the same permissons for storage folder and it works fine !

Jeah, i'm researching here. seems that it have something to do with windows and Laravel-Medialibrary.
Take a look here.
I try to figure out a solution.

@MsFoued try giving full write access to storage folder that will solve the permissions issue. Encountered same while using XAMPP on Windows & Linux, giving full write access fixed it.

[cracker182]

@ajitbohra can not confirm.

still the same issue.

@ajitbohra same here

@cracker182

i tried those 2 instructions :
dd(touch('delete.me')); === > return true
dd(touch('delete.')) ===> Exception touch(): Unable to create file delete. because Permission denied
i think that windows doesn't allow files without extensions

PS : it works fine on Ubuntu

[cracker182]

@MsFoued yes, had the same result. seems to be a error with the package spatie/laravel-medialibrary. i investigate further.

[ajitbohra]

@MsFoued @cracker182 following will cross-check on windows mission as I remember didn't face the issue though it was long back. If needed will check with guys at spatie for the same.

I have some issues when uploading user photo it show image is not readable

[alouini333]

I got the same error
Actually, windows can't touch() a file without extension. (Don't know why?)

So in the MembersController

The store action

I edited
if ($request->hasFile('photo')) {
$member->addMedia($request->file('photo'))->usingFileName('profile_'.$member->id.$request->photo->getClientOriginalExtension())->toMediaCollection('profile');
}
To
if ($request->hasFile('photo')) {
$member->addMedia($request->file('photo'))->usingFileName('profile_'.$member->id.".".$request->photo->getClientOriginalExtension())->toMediaCollection('profile');
}
I just added a dot before the extension
