I know you asked this question a long time ago but for those who seek the easiest and efficient way to solve this problem:

This error means laravel can't find the public folder.You must add this piece of code in the register method of Providers/AppServiceProvider.php:

public function register()
{
    $this->app->bind('path.public', function() {
       return base_path('PATH TO PUBLIC FOLDER');
    });
}

Example with public_html

In your case,, the path for public HTML will be:

public function register()
{
    $this->app->bind('path.public', function() {
       return base_path('public_html');
    });
}

This way Laravel knows where to look to find the public folder path.
