Unable to upload image through form?

Here's my HTML:

                            <label for="attachement1">Attach a file: <small style="color:#999;">(type: zip/rar and below 10mb)</small></label>

                            <input type="file" name="file1"/><br/>
                             <label for="snapshot">Snapshot / Thumbnail:</label>

                            <input type="file" name="thumbnail" required/><br/>
                            <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="">

                            <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" name="Submit" value="Publish" />

Here is the code in my controller file (for the update function):

/**
 * Update the specified resource in storage.
 *
 * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
 * @param  int  $id
 * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
 */
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
      $this->validate($request, [

      'thumbnail' => 'mimes:jpg,jpeg,png|max:800',

      'file1' => 'mimes:rar,zip|max:10000',

      ]);



      $file1=$request->file('file1');

      if(is_null($request->file('file1'))){

        $p=pages::where('id', '=', $request['id'])->first();

        $attmt1=$p->attachment;

      }

      else

      {

      $upload_dir='uploads';

    $attmt1=$file1->getClientOriginalName();

    $move=$file1->move($upload_dir, $attmt1);

      }



      if(is_null($request->file('thumbnail'))){

        $p=pages::where('id', '=', $request['id'])->first();

        $image=$p->thumbnail;

      }

      else

      {

        $img=$request->file('thumbnail');

        $upload_dir='thumbnails';

        $image=$img->getClientOriginalName();

        $move=$img->move($upload_dir, $image);

        //end thumbnail process 

      }

    $mypage->title = $request->title;
    $mypage->body = $request->body;
    //$mypage->thumbnail = $request->thumbnail;
    $mypage->slug = str_slug($request->slug, '-');
    $mypage->menu_name = $request->menu_name;
    $mypage->save();

    return redirect()->route('menupages.index')->with('message', 'Page updated successfully.');
}

When I try to edit an item and upload an image (.jpg format), and click submit, I get a "The thumbnail must be a file of type: jpg, jpeg, png." I checked the database and the file was not recorded.

For some reason, it is detecting the image as some foreign image file type even though it is .jpg.
