Laravel-medialibrary: The current request does not have a file in a key named `avatar`

[freekmurze]

Does your opening form tag contain the right enctype?

<form action="/your-url" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

Hello, just checked... that's not the problem, the problem is another... the error code it gives me now is: Interface 'App\HasMediaConversions' not found

my user model has this:

<?php

namespace App;

    use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
    use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
    use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\HasMediaTrait;
    use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\Interfaces\HasMedia;
    use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\User as EloquentUser;

class User extends \TCG\Voyager\Models\User implements HasMediaConversions
{
    use Notifiable, HasMediaTrait;

But i really don't know what is going on...

[freekmurze]

You need to import the correct namespace in order to use HasMediaConversions.

Put use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\Interfaces\HasMediaConversions; at the top of your class.

well... still not working :)

I've followed the documentation, but... Undefined namespace Interfaces and Undefined class HasMediaConversions

[CriptoMex]

So basically, the issue has not been solved :P

Can you install the latest version of the package in a vanilla Laravel app?

[CriptoMex]

What do you mean about a vanilla laravel app?

[CriptoMex]

I mean, i want to use the package on my project... and i don't have any idea why this is happening, basically this is not something i caused...

[freekmurze]

I think the problem is something specific to your app. All tests of the
package are passing. With over 500k installs we would get more reports if
the package was not installable.

Try following the install instructions to the letter. Sometimes it helps
installing the package in a new project to more easily figure out what is
going wrong in your old project.

Ok, let my try to install it in a brand new project, let's see what is going on...

[CriptoMex]

Just installed it in a brand new project, still getting the same problem:

[CriptoMex]

made some changes to my user model:
```

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\User as EloquentUser;
use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\HasMedia;
use Spatie\MediaLibrary\HasMedia\HasMediaTrait;

class User extends \TCG\Voyager\ModelsUser implements HasMedia
{
use Notifiable, HasMediaTrait;

But then, what happens here is that the page now correctly loads, the problem is that when i sign up a new user and add an avatar, i get the following error: `The current request does not have a file in a key named "avatar"` the register form has the following in it: `<form method="POST" action="{{ route('register') }}" aria-label="{{ __('Register') }}" enctype=”multipart/form-data”>`
and 
```<div class="form-group row">
                            <label for="avatar" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-right">{{ __('Avatar (optional)') }}</label>

                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="avatar" type="file" class="form-control" name="avatar">
                            </div>
                        </div>

So it seems that my code is ok, then, why is it throwing me that exception?

in my registercontroller i have this:
```if (isset($data['avatar'])) {
$user->addMediaFromRequest('avatar')->toMediaCollection('avatars');
}

    return $user;

```

Have you checked the contents of the request coming in to your app?

[CriptoMex]

Hello freek! I've decided to make a use of the package out of the user model and... well, it works, but it only crashes when i try to make use of it in the user model...

[freekmurze]

It seems to me that your problem is more related to your app and not to our package.

For general questions around Laravel and how to structure your app, please use a public forum like laravel.io or the laracasts forum.
