Resizing images using Laravel and the Intervention package

I am trying to manipulate images in Laravel using intervention I have followed all the required set up to use imagick. I use vagrant with centOS and it all shows everything is working as it should via phpinfo ();

When I run the following (snippit from the controller)

public function store()
{
    //Get all the user fields 

    $user = new User;

    $user->username = Input::get('username');
    $user->name = Input::get('name');
    $user->email = Input::get('email');
    $user->gender = Input::get('gender');
    $user->country = Input::get('country');
    $user->website = Input::get('website');
    $user->bio = Input::get('bio');

    //Check for and store user image

    if (Input::HasFile('image'))

    {
        $image = Image::make(Input::file('image'));

        $name = time() . '-' . $image->getClientOriginalName();

        $image->resize(100, 100);

        $image = $image->move(public_path() . '/images/avatars/', $name);

        $user->image = $name;


    }

    $user->save();

    return redirect('/admin/users');

}

It does everything I expect but resize the image. It get the image from the Input, assigns the new name and saves it in the right place. When I view it on the page it is simply the original size.

It does all this without error, so I am unsure whether the issue is with my code or on the server side.

Any help appreciated.

Dammit, it was server side, the memory set on vagrant was the issue, i.e not enough of it!

I had same problem, and solved it using Request class and not Input.

use Request;
// or depends of your app config
// use Illuminate\Http\Request;
...
if (Request::hasFile('image'))
{
    $image = Image::make(Request::file('image'));
...

Note: in laravel5 docs they not use Intput anymore: http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/requests and also is a good idea use the dependency injection so you can extend it and add rules and validations if needed...
