Laravel 5 uploading zip file showing Undefined variable: e

Question

I've created a file upload method and the file uploading with the file extension like jpg, png etc are successful. However, when I upload a zip file, it says me "Undefined variable: e". To find, I did dd() at the beginning of the respective method but it still says the above error. My route is as below:

Route::post('media/savedata/{id?}/{page?}', 'Administrator\MedialibraryController@savedata'); 

The method is as below:

public function savedata($id, $page, Request $request) {
 ...
}

The content of the "network" tab is as below:

Request URL: http://localhost/stmd/administrator/media/savedata/0/1
Request Method: POST
Status Code: 500 Internal Server Error
Remote Address: [::1]:80
Referrer Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fileType"

I
------WebKitFormBoundaryaHtERzAAThbQB4ae
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fileName"; filename="gradle-3.5-bin.zip"
Content-Type: application/zip

My intention is: If zip file is upload then it will redirect to another page however, I can't do this because even dd() is not working.

UPDATE:

Below is the Laravel Log:

My Handler.php content is below:

public function render($request, Exception $exception)
    {
        if($this->isHttpException($exception)){
            $logFile = 'laravel.log';

            Log::useDailyFiles(storage_path().'/logs/'.$logFile);
            //echo Route::getCurrentRoute()->getAction();



            //echo $exception->getStatusCode();exit;
            switch ($exception->getStatusCode()) {

                case 404:
                    Log::info('Unable to find page.');
                    return response()->view('errors.404',[],404);

                    break;

                case 500:

                    Log::error('In Server is really going wrong.');
                    return response()->view('errors.500',[],500);

                    break;
                 default:
                    return $this->renderHttpException($e);
                break;

            }

        }
        return parent::render($request, $exception);
    }
}

Change

return $this->renderHttpException($e);

to

return $this->renderHttpException($exception);

in

app/Exceptions/Handler.php
