Question

here is the snippet to my code when i try to query it like this
if ($request->isPost()) {
$form->setData($request->getPost());
if ($form->isValid()) {
//check authentication...
$this->getAuthService()->getAdapter()
->setIdentity($request->getPost('username'))
->setCredential($request->getPost('password'));
$username = $request->getPost('username');
$password = $request->getPost('password');
$result = $this->getAuthService()->authenticate();
$criteria = array("user_name" => $username,);
$results= $this->getEntityManager()->getRepository('Subject\Entity\User')->findBy($criteria);
print_r($results);
exit;
i get the following error

You are querying for the wrong field. The field is named _username in your entity class. Also check you annotations, _username and _password seem to not have any so they won't be created as database fields.
If you set up your entity correctly and all fields are in database you just need to query for your _username property:
if ($request->isPost()) {
$form->setData($request->getPost());
$repo = $this->getEntityManager()->getRepository('Subject\Entity\User');
if ($form->isValid()) {
// snip ...
$criteria = array("_username" => $username,);
$results= $repo->findBy($criteria);
print_r($results);
exit;
}
}
You user entity should look something like:
class User implements InputFilterAwareInterface {
/**
* #ORM\Column(name="username", type="string", length=64, unique=true)
*/
protected $_username;
/**
* #ORM\Column(name="password", type="string", length=64)
*/
protected $_password;
// snip ...
}
You may take a look at the PSR-2 standards. Underscores in method and variable names are discouraged by now.
