Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 1 passed to ? Symfony2.1 - php

Question

I am stopped by this error:
Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 1 passed to
Joker\CoreBundle\Entity\Incidentfile::setFile() must be an instance of
Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\File\UploadedFile, string given,
called in
/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/joker-repo/vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/Form/Util/PropertyPath.php
on line 538 and defined in
/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/joker-repo/src/Joker/CoreBundle/Entity/Incidentfile.php
line 157
In my entity I have setters and getters for File. I used this method to make file Upload: THIS
And there was permission problem for folder upload_images but after i solved it everything worked fine but now something went wrong.
Here is entity
/**

And here is my controler:
public function TestAction(Request $request){
$incfileRepo = new Incidentfile();
$formfile = $this->createForm(new IncfileType(), $incfileRepo);
if ($request->isMethod('POST')) {
$formfile->bind($request);
if ($formfile->isValid()) {
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$em->persist($incfileRepo);
$em->flush();
return $this->redirect($this->generateUrl('incident_show'));
}
}
$spotEntity = $this->getCurrentSpot();
$sentryEntity = $this->getCurrentSentry();
$messagesCollection = $this->getDoctrine()->getRepository('JokerCoreBundle:Message')->findBy(array(
'spot' => $spotEntity,
'sentry' => $sentryEntity
), array(
'sent_date' => 'DESC'
));
return $this->render('JokerAdminBundle:incidents:addfullform.html.twig', $this->getViewConstants(array(
'formfile'=>$formfile->createView(),
'spot' => $spotEntity,
'sentry' => $sentryEntity,
'messagesCollection' => $messagesCollection,
)));
}
Form in twig:
<form action="" method="post">
{{ form_rest(formfile) }}
<div class="singleTableForm">
<input style="float: left; margin-left: 338px; " type="submit" name="" class="button" value="Add" />
</div>
</form>

Answer 1

I found out what was wrong.. In twig was problem:
<form action="" method="post" {{ form_enctype(formfile) }}>
Just add **{{ form_enctype(formfile) }}**

Answer 2

You must add annotation
/**
* #ORM\PostPersist()
* #ORM\PostUpdate()
*/
public function upload()
see more http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/doctrine/file_uploads.html
And show the form code
UPD: best way - use tags {{ form_start(form) }} and {{ form_end(form) }} it will also protect you from csrf attacks
