Laravel 5 - Validating Mime types

Question

I have an uploader that works fine without rules, but when i create a rule i get the error:

LogicException in MimeTypeGuesser.php line 127:
Unable to guess the mime type as no guessers are available 
(Did you enable the php_fileinfo extension?)

My article request rules

/**
 * Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
 *
 * @return array
 */
public function rules()
{
    return [

        'Image' => 'required|mimes:jpeg'

    ];
}

My form

{!! Form::open(['url' => 'blog', 'files'=> true]) !!}
    <div class="form-group">
    {!! Form::label('Image', 'Upload:') !!}
    {!! Form::file('Image', null, ['class' => 'form-control']) !!}
</div>
<div class="form-group">
    {!! Form::submit('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary form-control']) !!}
</div>  
{!! Form::close() !!}

Answer 1

You should enable the following line in your php.ini and then restart your apache

extension=php_fileinfo.dll

Enabling mean just uncomment the line in your php.ini file

i.e., From this ;extension=php_fileinfo.dll to extension=php_fileinfo.dll
