$file->isValid() returns false in laravel 4.2

Question

$file = Input::file('video');
dd($file,$file->isValid());

enctype="multipart/form-data" is set in the form.

max_upload_limit is also increased and apache restarted

$file has the file, but $file->isValid() is always returning false.

Answer 1

Open the php.ini file. Find these lines in the php.ini file and replace it following numbers

upload_max_filesize = 64M

Save the changes and refresh your website and try uploading the file again.
