I was messing around with some of the path helpers and am curious about a couple things.

My document root path is '/var/www/site_name/october'.

base_path() returns '/var/www/site_name/october'.

storage_path() returns /var/www/site_name/october/storage'.

So far, so good. Now, what about these ones?

app_path() returns '/var/www/site_name/october/app' This directory does not exist, expected to see '/var/www/site_name/october/storage/app'

public_path() returns '/var/www/site_name/october' Exists, but is not the public folder, expected to see '/var/www/site_name/october/storage/app/uploads/public'

And my personal favorite...

uploads_path() returns an error: "Class path.uploads does not exist".

I'm running to latest version. Any ideas why I'm getting these differences?

Hi ndcisiv - did you manage to get any further with this?

I too am getting the Class path.uploads does not exist error when using uploads_path()

I've just been basing everything off the storage_path(). So storage_path('/app/uploads/') and then add from there.
