Question

I have a class Products which I use for a form and for the database – it has 3 date fields with this or similar:

/**
 * @ORM\Column(name="`date`", type="date")
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 * @Assert\Type("\Date")
 */

It has also 3-4 other fields which has only NotBlank(), one without any constraints and a field which is used to save the category of the product (category is another class and table in the database). It looks like this:

/**
 * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Categories")
 * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="categories_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 **/
private $categories;

Here is my function:

public function addAction($id, Request $request)
{
    $em = $this->getDoctrine()->getEntityManager(); 
    $products = new Products();
    $products_form = $this->createForm(new ProductsType(), $products);  
    $category = $em->getRepository('AcmeMyBundle:Categories')->find($id);

    if($request->getMethod() == 'POST')
    {
        $products_form->bindRequest($request);

        if($products_form->isValid()) 
        {
            $products->setDomains($category); 
            $em->persist($products);
            $em->flush();
        }

At the end it redirects. The problem is that even when I add correct values in the form it says that it is not valid. To add a date a simply write a string like this ‘2012-08-09’ in the form.

When I comment

if($products_form->isValid())

Everything works fine.

Any suggestions? Please help!

EDIT:

Here is the Products class:

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 * @ORM\Table(name="products")
 */
class Products
{
/**
 * @ORM\Id
 * @ORM\Column(type="integer")
 * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
 */
protected $id;

/**
 * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Categories")
 * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="categories_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 **/
private $categories;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(name="`date`", type="date")
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 * @Assert\Type("\Date")
 */
protected $date;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(name="`from`", type="date")
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 * @Assert\Type("\Date")   
 */
protected $from;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(name="`to`", type="date")
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 * @Assert\Type("\Date")
 */
protected $to;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="decimal", scale=2)
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 */
protected $price;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=5)
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 */
protected $currency;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=50)
 * @Assert\NotBlank()
 */
protected $paymentid;

/**
 * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=100, nullable=true)
 */
protected $notes;

And here I create the form:

class ProductsType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)
{
    $builder->add('date', 'date', array(
        'widget' => 'single_text', 
        'format' => 'yyyy-MM-dd'));

    $builder->add('from', 'date', array(
        'widget' => 'single_text', 
        'format' => 'yyyy-MM-dd'));

    $builder->add('to', 'date', array(
        'widget' => 'single_text', 
        'format' => 'yyyy-MM-dd'));

    $builder->add('price', 'text');

    $builder->add('currency', 'choice', array(
        'choices' => array(
            'empty_value'=>'--- Choose ---', 'USD'=>'USD', 'HKD'=>'HKD', 'EUR'=>'EUR', 'BGN'=>'BGN')));

    $builder->add('paymentid', 'text');

    $builder->add('notes', 'text', array(
        'required'  => false));
}

public function getName()
{
    return 'payments';
}

I think in your form ,make sure that csrf token is there.

Add the following code at the below of the form widget inside the tag.

{{ form_widget(form._token) }}

Hope this helps you.
