<div style="text-align: inherit">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-group-sm" value="upload" name="Submit">Upload</button>
</div>
</form>

Answer 1

Your issue is either a file system permission error or bad file path error.
The reason this works on your local machine is because your local system is more permissive -- your user has sufficient permissions to write the file or the system helps you resolve the bad path to a good one. This is likely because you are using an operating system, such as Windows, that does not enforce permissions the same way your *nix server does.
Let's look at these issues
Wrongly formatted file path
Non-existent file path
Insufficient permissions
Path
Look at your path. The double slash is a bad thing.
/var/www/html/gracia/public//profile-image
There may be some underlying issues but a quick fix to test is to use realpath().
$file->move(realpath(public_path("profile-image/")), $file->getClientOriginalName());
Now you must confirm that the directory actually exists on your server. SSH (putty) into the system and run:
ls -l /var/www/html/gracia/public
Or FTP in and navigate to the path.
The profile-image directory must be there.
Permission
SSH (putty) into the system and run:
ls -l /var/www/html/gracia/public
Output (example):
drwxr-xr-x 2 gracia users 4096 Jun 19 12:27 profile-image
These permissions mean that only the user gracia can write to the directory. It is likely that the web server does not run as this user, so you must change the permissions so that the directory is accessible to that user.
Here is how to make the directory write-able for all users.
chmod -R 777 public-image/
Output (example):
drwxrwxrwx 2 gracia users 4096 Jun 19 12:27 profile-image
