    $upload = $request->arquivo->storeAs('products', 'novonomeaffffff.jpg');
    exit();
}

You need to wrap it as a file to access the file methods, something like:

$upload = $request->file('arquivo')->storeAs('products', 'novonomeaffffff.jpg');

I don't understand Chris, please write the correct code for me? Please – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 00:44
I have, it is right there above? You had `->arquivo` but it should be `->file('arquivo')` – Chris Jan 28 '19 at 00:45
Cris your code error: Call to a member function storeAs() on null – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 00:47
Not my code mate. The above error though would suggest that `arquivo` doesn't contain any uploaded data, are you sure you are uploading a file? Trying dumping out the request data with something like `dump($request->all())` – Chris Jan 28 '19 at 00:50
"_token" => "AltCjFjNN3FfZU8xhdjSE9M5ki6bxnAnmStZhDW8" "arquivo" => "download.png" "placa" => "w" "marca" => "w" "modelo" => "e" "cor" => "f" "tipcombust" => "r" "nportas" => "4" "quilometragem" => "22" "renavam" => "wqdqw" "chassi" => "wqd" "valordiaria" => "222" ] – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 00:58
after error again: "Call to a member function storeAs() on null" – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 00:58
$request->file('arquivo'); IS NULL. The method file() , its necessary some library???? – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 01:20
Relax. People are here trying to help in their own spare time... `file` is not part of an external library (it is part of laravel, please take 30mins to read through the docs I linked above). It seems your request isn't treating the file as a file, are you sure the form is set to multipart? Please update your question with your full controller method code and also the full form you are creating – Chris Jan 28 '19 at 01:23
Ok, its work, i created a new view with a new form e and its all right. – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 02:13
Are All Right!! Thanks, but my english is not very well – Edenilson Conceição Jan 28 '19 at 02:14
