I have tried below api to upload file to library folder.
var url = String.format(
"{0}/_api/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('/testDocumentList/testFolder')/Files/Add(url='{1}', overwrite=true)",
_spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl, fileName);
I get error Server relative urls must start with SPWeb.ServerRelativeUrl
Try removing the / character from the beggining of the parameter of GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl function. Change it to: 'testDocumentList/testFolder'.
Your updated code should look like this:
var url = String.format(
"{0}/_api/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('testDocumentList/testFolder')/Files/Add(url='{1}', overwrite=true)",
_spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl, fileName);
In my case, I was having this error in SharePoint Online. My site collection URL contains "/sites". So to fix this issue I have to pass URL as follow:
var requesturi= "";
if((_spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl) && (_spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl.indexOf("sites")>0))
{
requesturi = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('"+_spPageContextInfo.webServerRelativeUrl+"/Shared%20Documents/document.docx')/$value";
}
else
{
requesturi = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Shared%20Documents/document.docx')/$value";
}

Please try with angularJs & => fileUrl = 'subsite01/Pages/file-0001.aspx'
