Are you getting any error message? if yes, what is the error message? What is happening when you try?
You cannot store a Photos Library in iCloud. You have to keep the Photos Library
Photos local on you Mac and let iPhotos sync the Photos from your library to iCloud. Also, the upgrade to Catalina has changed the support for some older legacy video and image formats. Not all your older videos and photos may be compatible with iCloud. You may want to check the codecs of your media files.
How large is your Photos Library? The upload of 100 GB of Photos may take several days.

Troubleshooting iCloud Photos Uploads:
First, Enable Photos on Mac:
then...
Wait it Out:
If there are thousands of photos, then it will take some time. So, wait it out, staying connected to the internet.
In Photos/Preferences/iCloud is iCloud Photos checked?
Try going to System Preferences/Apple ID/iCloud and stop Photos syncing by unchecking the box. Wait a couple of minutes, then check syncing. Allow time for the sync to complete. The photos sync is extremely slow. It could take several days or more for the photos to sync.
Last resort - have you tried signing out of iCloud, restarting, and then signing back in?
