using dompdf in codeigniter not making pdfs on live

I am creating pdfs using this code

$dompdf->loadHtml($html);
$dompdf->setPaper('A4', 'portrait');
$dompdf->render();
$pdf = $dompdf->output();
file_put_contents($this->config->item('file_path') . $pdf_name, $pdf);
$data['pdf'] = site_url('uploads/pdf/' . $pdf_name);

It works perfectly on XMPP localhost, but on LIVE server I get this error.

A PHP Error was encountered 
<p>Severity: Warning</p>
<p>Message:  file_put_contents(/home/xyz/public_html/abc/uploads/pdf/quotation_1502863603.pdf): failed to open stream: No such file or directory</p>
<p>Filename: controllers/Admin.php</p>
<p>Line Number: 742</p>

Please guide me what could be the issue on a LIVE server?

Wrong in here $this->config->item('file_path') (path - /home/xyz/public_html/abc/uploads/pdf/). This path belongs to localhost and not to the server.

You should have try

$pdf_path = 'uploads/pdf/'.$pdf_name;
file_put_contents($pdf_path, $pdf);

Codeigniter Environment nothing to do with hosting path, its need an only relative path. As well check permeation on upload path (777)

use terminal to check the path of the folder cd /home/xyz/public_html/abc/uploads/pdf/

in above command, folder is available then next check for permission (should be writable - 755)
