Intervention cannot write image to the path in Laravel

Question

I am trying to execute following code

if(Input::hasFile('image_small')){
            $image1 = Input::file('image_small');

             $path = public_path('images/album/small/'.$albumcode);
            $xx = File::delete($album->album_art);

            Image::make($image1->getRealPath())->resize(256,256)->save($path.'/'.$filename);
            dd($xx.' : '.$album->album_art);


                    }

But I am getting following error

Can't write image data to path (/home/vqujcxca/madmuzik/public/images/album/small/MAD_ALBUM-2016-0004/akkual_sm.jpg)

Following is my latest stack trace

Answer 1

You have to also make the $albumcode (/MAD_ALBUM-2016-0004) folder before saving the images

OR may

change this:

public_path('images/album/small/'.$albumcode);

To this:

$path = 'images/album/small/'.$albumcode;
