Невозможно загрузить изображение в хранилище Firebase из моего приложения

Question

Уже много дней мы сталкиваемся с этой проблемой. Способен к изображению, кстати. Всегда показывает «Ошибка загрузки». Мое приложение подключено к базе данных и хранилищу Firebase. Все остальные значения приложения успешно добавляются в базу данных. Но в Firebase Storage ничего не идет. Пожалуйста помоги. Моя загрузка:

public class UploadActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    StorageTask uploadTask;
    Uri path;
    StorageReference photoStorage;
    DatabaseReference photoRef;
    ImageView passportsize_photo;
    Button upload_photo, chose_photo;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_upload);

        chose_photo =findViewById(R.id.choose_photo);
        passportsize_photo =findViewById(R.id.passportsize_photo);
        upload_photo =findViewById(R.id.upload_photo);

        photoStorage = FirebaseStorage.getInstance().getReference("Photos");
        photoRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("Photos");

        upload_photo.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if(uploadTask!=null&&uploadTask.isInProgress()){
                    Toast.makeText(UploadActivity.this, "Upload in progress", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }else { uploadFile();}
            }
        });
        chose_photo.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                openFileChooser();
            }
        });

    }

    private String getFileExtension(Uri uri) {
        ContentResolver cR = this.getContentResolver();
        MimeTypeMap mime = MimeTypeMap.getSingleton();
        return mime.getExtensionFromMimeType(cR.getType(uri));
    }
    private void uploadFile() {
        StorageReference Ref = photoStorage.child(System.currentTimeMillis() + "." + getFileExtension(path));
        uploadTask = Ref.putFile(path)
                .addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<UploadTask.TaskSnapshot>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onSuccess(UploadTask.TaskSnapshot taskSnapshot) {
                        // Get a URL to the uploaded content
                        //Uri downloadUrl = taskSnapshot.getDownloadUrl();
                        Toast.makeText(UploadActivity.this, "Image Uploaded", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    }
                })
                .addOnFailureListener(new OnFailureListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception exception) {
                        // Handle unsuccessful uploads
                        // ...
                        Toast.makeText(UploadActivity.this, "Upload failed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    }

                });
    }

    private void openFileChooser() {
        Intent intent = new Intent();
        intent.setType("image/*");
        intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
        startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

        if (requestCode == 1 && resultCode == RESULT_OK
                && data != null && data.getData() != null) {
            path = data.getData();
            passportsize_photo.setImageURI(path);
            //Picasso.get().load(path).into(passportsize_photo);
        }
    }


}

Прочитал много форумов и статей, не нашел решения. Заранее спасибо.
