I am using Laravel 5.7
I am attempting to upload an image file and validating its upload using built in laravel validation. It keeps responding with 'The file failed to upload.'
I am using AJAX to upload this data. My form has enctype="multipart/form-data" set.
I have already figured out to include the CSRF token with the AJAX request.
I have already fixed the php.ini max_file_size issue, and the files I am testing with are far under 10MB.
If I upload a text file (as an example), and with validation set to required|image|max:10000 it will correctly prevent the file from uploading and respond with 'File must be an image.'
If I disable all validation, the file is uploaded just fine.
I cannot think of anything else I may be doing wrong. Please help as this as my project is at a halt at the moment.
Form HTML:
<form method="post" class="dropzone" action="{{ route('images') }}" enctype="multipart/form-data"
data-nopants-load="dropzone{'transformImage':true,'acceptedFiles-1':'image/jpg','previewsContainer':'#dropzone-previews'}">
@method('post')
@csrf
<div class="dz-border">
<div class="background"></div>
<div class="border"></div>
</div>
<div class="dz-message margins-auto _font-size-large"><span>Drop Images here or <span class="_underline">Click</span> to Upload.</span></div>
<div class="fallback flex-col">
<div class="self-center margin-bottom">
<input name="file" type="file" class="form-input" multiple />
</div>
<button type="submit" class="button -call">Upload</button>
</div>
</form>
