Unknown column type requested

Ironically, this same issue has recently started happening for me as well. It just started randomly over the weekend. Same exact issue (with 2 spaces between type and requested). For me, it happens when using Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager->find() on a valid entity.

hi, seems like doctrine does not clean cache fully.

in my case I'm using APC cache
run: in php *apc_clear_cache('user');*

it should work fine now

PS.:
running cache clearing commands, does not help.

doctrine:cache:clear-metadata Clears all metadata cache for a entity manager
doctrine:cache:clear-query Clears all query cache for a entity manager
doctrine:cache:clear-result Clears result cache for a entity manager

Hi,

@gediminas : I don't have the error anymore so I can't test, but it's nice if there's a solution to fix it.

However, this error is problematic as it's anti-verbose.
There's is no indication of a cache problem in the error message. It try to point out to a field, and that field is not even displayed in the error.
I hope someone will be able to fix the error so that's it become a useful error, like by following some sort of guideline:

http://www.useit.com/alertbox/20010624.html

I don't want to troll or anything, but as I'Ve started using doctrine2 with symfony2, the MAJOR problem I've encountered what bad error message that was leaving me lost. Often I had -v, find the file where the error occurred, look at the code, understand by myself what's wrong and attempt to fix it. This is counter-productive and really show that the exception message doesn't follow most error message guide line. For sure, we're not end-users, but we're "programmer-user" that use the system, and this "title" come with a knowledge that is not the same as we could expect of a core-developer, for example.

I hope this message was constructive.
