Using FOSUserBundle, Symfony2 and Doctrine, I am trying to introduce a new field in the user entity.
I haven't had problems so far customizing the user Entity to add field of "normal" types, such as, string, boolean, etc...
But now I want to add a field of type "Array", just I have made in other entities.
This is the code I am introducing in the User entity:
/**
* @var array $archivedPackages
*
* @ORM\Column(name="archivedPackages", type="array")
*/
private $archivedPackages;
But as soon as I reload my page once I have re-generated the entities (doctrine:generate:entities), I get the following error:
ConversionException: Could not convert database value "" to Doctrine Type array
The stack:
