Unrecognized field: usernameCanonical for symfony2 FosUserbundle - symfony

Question

I have a problem with the FOSUserBundle.
A know problem : 'Unrecognized field: usernameCanonical for symfony2 FosUserbundle' when I try a login
AND
on schema update I get this error:
Duplicate definition of column 'username' on entity 'Acme\ProjectBundle\Entity\User' in a field or discriminator column mapping.
I get this error ONLY IF I add the 'FOSUserBundle: ~' to settings of doctrine's mapping in the config.yml
I have tried a lot of solutions but I don't have resoved my problem :/
Please help me.
I have followed the FOS' team: https://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSUserBundle/blob/master/Resources/doc/index.md
Before everything worked perfectly ...

Answer 1

It seems your version of the FOSUserBundle is not good ... I had the same problem with a 1.3.* that I solved just changing this to version "~2.0#dev".
You can check this looking at your "fos_user" table ; if it just contains a single "id" field, your User entity is not extending the right "FOS\Entity\User" object ... try to upgrade your required version of the bundle in your "composer.json" and then rebuild your tables (below a full HARD rebuild - data are lost):
php app/console doctrine:schema:drop --force
php app/console doctrine:schema:create
If your "fos_user" table have all required fields, then you're good.

Answer 2

Review the docs on creating a use class: https://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSUserBundle/blob/master/Resources/doc/index.md
Your User class should not be repeating all the properties (username etc) from the base class. It should only have the new properties like name and id.
And while you didn't show your doctrine mapping file, I'm guessing your probably duplicated everything in there is well? Only map the new properties.

Answer 3

In fact, i guess, you should have some piece of code on config.yml as
fos_user:
db_driver: orm # other valid values are 'mongodb', 'couchdb' and 'propel'
firewall_name: main
user_class: Acme\ProjectBundle\Entity\User
and you should have no need to add sth. to orm settings for FOSUser.

Answer 4

orm:
auto_generate_proxy_classes: "%kernel.debug%"
#auto_mapping: true
default_entity_manager: default
entity_managers:
default:
// that's for APCu or APC
metadata_cache_driver: apc
result_cache_driver: apc
query_cache_driver: apc
in dev env APC disabled, that's why you get this error. You have to comment it for dev or enable cacheClassLoader

Answer 5

I had this trouble and applied PieroWbmstr's suggestion, and started using 2.0 instead of 1.3.6... with doctrine.orm.auto_mapping set to true in config.yml
Once I made the composer.json version switch and upgraded, my doctrine:schema:update instantly recognised the new fields as missing in the current database instance, and applied them.
The newer version of the user class within FOS/UserBundle doesn't seem to have any significant changes that would force the mapping to play nicely. Does anyone have an idea as to what the difference is in these two versions? Or more directly, why the older version somehow didn't let doctrine recognise it's xml mappings (hint: in both of my FOS/UserBundle versions, I had my local custom bundles set to use annotations).
Thanks
