Symfony2 Error: The options "value" do not exist in constraint - php

Question

I have a Symfony FOSUserBundle which I am using with my Symfony2 application. I have run into a problem which I need help finding a solution to as I am not sure why it is showing up. After installation, I have tested the registration and login and they work but now when I try the resetting password, it gives me an error "The options "value" do not exist in constraint Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Validator\Constraints\UniqueEntity". I have not modified the symfony2 vendor classes and I am sure I have not added anything else to FOSUserBundle to alter its behaviour. Here is my FOSUserBundle configuration:
fos_user:
db_driver: orm # other valid values are 'mongodb', 'couchdb' and 'propel'
firewall_name: main
user_class: Main\BundleName\Entity\User
service:
mailer: fos_user.mailer.twig_swift
registration:
confirmation:
enabled: true
from_email:
address: ....some email address here
sender_name: The senders name
Here is my Entity Class, I have truncated the setters and getters to reduce the length of this post:
namespace Main\BundleName\Entity;
use FOS\UserBundle\Model\User as BaseUser;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Validator\Constraints\UniqueEntity;
/**
* User
*
* #ORM\Table(name="User")
* #ORM\Entity
* #UniqueEntity("email", message="A user with the specified email already exists")
* #UniqueEntity("username", message="A user with the specified username already exists")
*/
class User extends BaseUser
{
/**
* #var integer
*
* #ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer", nullable=false)
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
*/
protected $id;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="password", type="string", length=255, nullable=false)
*/
protected $password;
/**
* #var string
*/
protected $salt;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="email", type="string", length=255, nullable=false)
*/
private $firstName;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="last_name", type="string", length=200, nullable=true)
*/
private $lastName;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="name", type="string", length=200, nullable=true)
*/
private $name;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="thumbnail", type="string", length=200, nullable=true)
*/
// Getters and Setters ...truncated ....
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
// your own logic
}
/**
* Get id
*
* #return integer
*/
public function getId()
{
return $this->id;
}
/**
* Set username
*
* #param string $username
* #return User
*/
public function setUsername($username)
{
$this->username = $username;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get username
*
* #return string
*/
public function getUsername()
{
return $this->username;
}
/**
* Set password
*
* #param string $password
* #return User
*/
public function setPassword($password)
{
$this->password = $password;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get password
*
* #return string
*/
public function getPassword()
{
return $this->password;
}
}
Any ideas on how to fix this error?

Answer 1

I think the problem is on the uniqueEntity declaration
You should use #UniqueEntity(fields = "email", message="A message") instead of #UniqueEntity("email", message="A message").
When you pass more than one parameters to the UniqueEntity annotation you should declare each parameters. You can use #UniqueEntity("email") only if there is one parameters.
Hope it's helpful.
Best regard.

I faced a similar error when clearing the cache after i downgraded from Symfony 2.4 to 2.3.
[Symfony\Component\Validator\Exception\InvalidOptionsException]
The options "value" do not exist in constraint Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\Regex
#Benjamin Lazarecki answer helped me finding the solution
When i was in Symfony2.4 this annotation wasn't a problem:
#Assert\Regex("/^[0-9]{4}(?:-[0-9]{3})?$/", match=true, message="Format XXXX-XXX")
but after the downgrade it seems i need to be explicit when declaring the pattern like the annotation below:
#Assert\Regex(pattern="/^[0-9]{4}(?:-[0-9]{3})?$/", match=true, message="Format XXXX-XXX")
