Fosuserbundle: Can't create User after adding groups support

[CBeloch]

Hi,
I have enabled Usergroups in my setup and now I get an error message when I call fos:user:create from the command line:

[ErrorException]                                                                                                                                                              
  Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in [...]/Symfony/vendor/bundles/FOS/UserBundle/Model/User.php line 160  

It asks for username, email and password, and this message comes after that.
Some idea why?

Does your user class call the parent constructor when overwriting it ?

[CBeloch]

Sorry for the late reply, I had to work on another project...

Yes, these are the first lines of my code:

<?php

namespace oko\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Entity;

use FOS\UserBundle\Entity\User as BaseUser;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;

/**
 * oko\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Entity\User
 */
class User extends BaseUser
{

The code you pasted does not contain the constructor

[CBeloch]

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->groups = new \Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection();
    }

[stof]

the issue is indeed there: you are not calling the parent constructor and so the object is not initialized properly.

[CBeloch]

ah, thanks! that was the problem!

I had the same issue, here I add the way to call the parent to help future users.

public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct ();
}
