{!! form::open([         'route'         => 'resource-store',         'class'         => 'uploadresource',         'files'         => true ]) !!}  {!! form::label('resource title') !!} {!! form::text('title', null, ['placeholder'=>'descriptive title']) !!}  {!! form::label('your resource') !!} {!! form::file('resource', null) !!}  {!! form::submit('create resource') !!}  {!! form::close() !!} 

controller store method

public function store(resourcerequest $request, $id)     {         /* store entry in db */         $resource = new resource();         $resource->title = $request->title;         $resource->save();          /* process, validate & store image */         storage::put(             'resource-'.$resource->id,             $resource         );          /* success message */         session()->flash('message', $request->title . ' er lavet/uploadet!');         return redirect()->route('resource.index');     } 

database config

'mysql' => [             'driver'    => 'mysql',             'host'      => env('db_host', 'localhost'),             'database'  => env('db_database', 'forge'),             'username'  => env('db_username', 'forge'),             'password'  => env('db_password', ''),             'charset'   => 'utf8',             'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',             'prefix'    => '',             'strict'    => false,             'port'      => 33060,         ], 

config/filesystems.php

return [      'default' => 's3',     'cloud' => 's3',      'disks' => [          'local' => [             'driver' => 'local',             'root'   => storage_path().'/app',         ],          's3' => [             'driver' => 's3',             'key'    => env('aws_key'),             'secret' => env('aws_secret'),             'region' => env('aws_region'),             'bucket' => env('aws_bucket'),         ],          'rackspace' => [             'driver'    => 'rackspace',             'username'  => 'your-username',             'key'       => 'your-key',             'container' => 'your-container',             'endpoint'  => 'https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0/',             'region'    => 'iad',         ],     ], ]; 

typical. realized wrong after reading this article paul robinson.

i had set s3 region frankfurt. while region sure enough frankfurt, needed refer eu-central-1 s3 region in config/filesystems.php.

after go on fix next error in storage::put() method.

wrong

 storage::put(         'resource-'.$resource->id,          $resource  ); 

correct

storage::put(         'resource-'.$resource->id,         file_get_contents($request->file('resource')) ); 

hope can others. have terrific day/night/etc.
