I might as well provide an answer here because I had the same exact problem, contacted Cloudinary's support team, and their solution worked.

First, I have an images folder and keep all of them there.

\Cloudinary\Uploader::upload('images/image1.jpg');

That caused the same error you got. I then changed it to:

\Cloudinary\Uploader::upload("C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\test\\images\\image1.jpg");

That worked perfectly. However, I didn't want to use absolute paths, so that's why I contacted their support team. This is the code that works:

\Cloudinary\Uploader::upload( $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/test/images/image1.jpg");

The test value in that string is the directory of my site, inside the htdocs folder.

The uploader cannot find the file you are trying to upload. Try to put the 1.png file in the same directory as the php file and run:

\Cloudinary\Uploader::upload(realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/1.png'));

Sounds like 1.png is hardcoded somewhere and your parameter is not taken into account. Try to do a project wide search for 1.png and see if you can replace that with a parameter.
