getClientOriginalName на null с присутствующими данными и без перезаписанных функций, которые будут переименовывать файлы

Question

Полная ошибка

2020-04-09 15:04:47] local.ERROR: Вызов функции-члена getClientOriginalName() при нулевом значении {"исключение":"[объект] (Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalThrowableError(code: 0): Вызов функции-члена getClientOriginalName() с нулевым значением в C:app\Http\Controllers\ContactsController.php:111)

Нет ничего очевидного в синтаксической ошибке или просто в том, что код, который мне нужен, находится в нужных местах. Метод getClientOriginalName работает. Я просто не вижу свои отправленные файлы в базе данных PHPAdmin. Я работаю в среде Laravel. Кажется, не могу понять, почему файл не отправляется

PHP

        $rows = SimpleExcelReader::create(storage_path('app/' . $result))->getRows();
        dd($request->file('file')->getClientOriginalName());
