学说不能删除实体

I face exception when I'm trying to remove entity with the help of Doctrine.

Here is my code:

if ($id > 0) {
    $phase = $em->find("Phase", $id);
    if ($phase instanceof Phase) {
        $picture = $phase->getPicture();
        if ($picture != "")
            deleteFile($dir . getPhotoSrc($picture));
        $logo = $phase->getLogo();
        if ($picture != "")
            deleteFile($dir . getPhotoSrc($logo));
        $logo2 = $phase->getLogo2();
        if ($picture != "")
            deleteFile($dir . getPhotoSrc($logo2));
        $em->remove($phase);
        $em->flush();
    }
}

This is the error I'm getting

Entity was not found.

In class Plan I have:

/**
 * @ManyToMany(targetEntity="Phase", inversedBy="plans", cascade={"persist", "remove"}, fetch="EXTRA_LAZY")
 * @JoinTable(name="links_plan_phase",
 *      joinColumns={@JoinColumn(name="plan_id", referencedColumnName="id")},
 *      inverseJoinColumns={@JoinColumn(name="phase_id", referencedColumnName="id")}
 *      )
 **/
protected $phases;

In class Phase I have:

/**
 * @ManyToMany(targetEntity="Plan", mappedBy="phases", cascade={"persist", "remove"}, fetch="EXTRA_LAZY")
 **/
private $plans;

I'm finally confused. Can anybody help me to find where is the problem and how ca I solve it.
