Mapping exception after install SonataMediaBundle

Question

I'm trying to setup and use SonataMediaBundle for use inside SonataAdminBundle. I read and follow every step in docs for SMB. When I run the command:

php app/console sonata:easy-extends:generate SonataMediaBundle

By default this create the Bundle in app/ folder so manually I move into src/ folder where it should be. Now every time I try to access to my application I get this error:

MappingException: The class 'Application\Sonata\UserBundle\Entity\User' was not found in the chain configured namespaces Sonata\MediaBundle\Entity

And I don't know why, I check everywhere looking for references and didn't found nothing. Can any help me to fix this or give me a clue?

Answer 1

After reads and try several things I found where the error was. In my doctrine config I have:

orm:
    auto_generate_proxy_classes: "%kernel.debug%"
#   auto_mapping: true
    entity_managers:
        default:
            mappings:
                ApplicationSonataMediaBundle: ~
                SonataMediaBundle: ~

By removing the auto_mapping clause, I no longer register UserBundle in the doctrine’s mapping directories. Hence it cannot find your User entity. So solution was either uncomment the auto_mapping: true from your config and comment the entity_manager.default.mappings part, or explicitly specify your User bundle in the section. So I pick the first one and my code looks like this now:

orm:
    auto_generate_proxy_classes: "%kernel.debug%"
    auto_mapping: true
#    entity_managers:
#        default:
#            mappings:
#                ApplicationSonataMediaBundle: ~
#                SonataMediaBundle: ~

remove it again and run following command, php app/console sonata:easy-extends:generate --dest=src SonataMediaBundle... You forgot the --dest=src and just by moving the files you won't have changed all the namespaces.

I found solution where it should be:

doctrine:
    orm:
        auto_generate_proxy_classes: %kernel.debug%
        entity_managers:
            default:
                auto_mapping: true
                mappings:
                    ApplicationSonataMediaBundle: ~
                    SonataMediaBundle: ~

auto_mapping: true must be into doctrine, orm, entity_managers, default section and not into doctrine, orm.
