How can I further troubleshoot this when no actual exception is thrown?

CodePudding user response：

The issue was with an AWS WAF rule preventing HTTP post size from exceeding a certain number. Removed the rule, and it's now working again.

CodePudding user response：

It looks like the issue may be related to the server's file permissions or Apache's configuration. To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps and it's may helpfull:

Make sure the Apache user (usually www-data or apache) has read and write permissions on the directory where you're trying to upload the file. You can use the chmod and chown commands to adjust the permissions.

Check the Apache configuration files (usually located in /etc/httpd/conf or /etc/httpd/conf.d) for any restrictions on file uploads. Look for a LimitRequestBody directive and make sure it's set to a high enough value to allow for your file uploads.

Make sure the PHP configuration (php.ini) has file_uploads set to On and upload_max_filesize and max_file_uploads set to appropriate values.

Check the Apache error log (usually located in /var/log/httpd or /var/log/apache2) for any error messages related to file uploads.

Check the Laravel log files for any error messages related to file uploads.

Try to upload a file with a small size and check if it works or not.

Try adding AllowEncodedSlashes On in your virtual host configuration file.

Make sure that any .htaccess files in your application do not have any rules that may be blocking file uploads.

I hope By following these steps, you should be able to identify and fix the issue
