I have a issue with moving images on digitalocean. I’m using the following code:
Storage::disk('do-spaces')->move('xxx/uploads/temp/'.$image_name_request, 'xxx/dps/images/'.$image->image_filename);
source: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/filesystem
I did the following checks:
- checked if file in temp folder exists -> get back true
- both
$image_name_requestand$image->image_filenameare set - Code does not give an error but nothing is changed on digitalocean spaces.
- check if dps/image file exists gives -> false
Any idea what i’m doing wrong or a way to debug this?

Hi @mbodo,
This will require some troubleshooting.
Firstly, what I see, it’s possible Laravel doesn’t recognize ‘do-spaces’ as a configured disk.
Add DigitalOcean Spaces as a configured disk in Laravel
- Istall via Composer Flysystem Adapter for AWS SDK V3
composer require league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3
- Add the following disk to the array located in
Config/filesystems.phpfile :
do_spaces' => [
'driver' => 's3',
'key' => env('DO_SPACES_KEY'),
'secret' => env('DO_SPACES_SECRET'),
'endpoint' => env('DO_SPACES_ENDPOINT'),
'region' => env('DO_SPACES_REGION'),
'bucket' => env('DO_SPACES_BUCKET'),
],
- Add the following variables to your .env file
DO_SPACES_KEY=
DO_SPACES_SECRET=
DO_SPACES_ENDPOINT=sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com (example) DO_SPACES_REGION=SFO2 (example)
DO_SPACES_BUCKET=NAME_OF_YOUR_SPACE
Once you’ve added the above, you should be able to use the ‘s3’ driver for your disk.

We were not able to fix the move command. We solved it by uploading to the new location after that deleting the file from the old location.
With regards to moving/copying directories, this is a useful link: https://github.com/thephpleague/flysystem-aws-s3-v3/issues/128
