Maker Bundle does not find App namespace

[ahmeier]

I have a very strange problem with maker bundle in my symphony 4.1 project. I am using the standard App namespace. The project works fine, no issues with composer update or composer install.

When I try to run bin/console make:entity I get the following warning:

! [NOTE] It looks like your app may be using a namespace other than "App". ! ! To configure this and make your life easier, see: ! https://symfony.com/doc/current/bundles/SymfonyMakerBundle/index.html#configuration.

My autoload keys in composer.json are:

"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"App\": "src/"
}
},
"autoload-dev": {
"psr-4": {
"App\Tests\": "tests/"
}
},

At this point I am not sure where to start the trouble shooting. I have seen some posts to make sure that the services.yaml file is set up correctly, but I cannot find an error there (App related entries below...):

# makes classes in src/ available to be used as services
# this creates a service per class whose id is the fully-qualified class name
App\:
    resource: '../../src/*'
    exclude: '../../src/{Entity,Migrations,Tests}'

# controllers are imported separately to make sure services can be injected
# as action arguments even if you don't extend any base controller class
App\Controller\:
    resource: '../../src/Controller'
    tags: ['controller.service_arguments']

# add more service definitions when explicit configuration is needed
# please note that last definitions always *replace* previous ones

# create aliases for bundle services to make them compliant with symfony 4

# this listener is required by App\EventListener\MyUserAccessListener
ApiPlatform\Core\EventListener\ReadListener: ~

# this service needs to be public as it replaces the
# API Platform PUT controller for MedicalSchool resources
App\Action\MedicalSchoolPut:
    public: true

# this service needs to be public as it replaces the
# API Platform POST controller for File resources
App\Action\FilePost:
    public: true`

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hmm. Info the maker commands work despite the warning?

At the very least, this looks funny - it could be a bug - the system may incorrectly be thinking your app doesn’t use the App namespace.

@weaverryan thanks for your input. Unfortunately, even though everything else works, the maker bundle does not. It fails for all commands with:
Could not determine where to locate the new class "App\Entity\NAME_OF_CLASS", maybe try with a full namespace like "\My\Full\Namespace\NAME_OF_CLASS".

Trying adding a full namespace, including the App namespace, fails as well.

I am just not sure where to start troubleshooting this...

Hmm, interesting.

Could you try to post a small project on GitHub to see if you can replicate it? Do you have any special autoloading happening?

This is pretty core functionality, so I don’t think it’s broken in general - other people would be having problems. But something special to your setup is causing this behavior (which is likely a bug).

Also, if you want to debug, look at the AutoloaderUtil::isNamespaceConfiguredToAutoload() method and add some dump code there. This is what looks at your autoloading config to see if App is a configures autoload rule.

Cheers!

@weaverryan Update on the issue. Had nothing to do with maker bundle. I had reinstalled the vendor directory, and during the update a second services.yaml file was created under config, whereas mine was under config/packages. Both set the App directory up for autoload, which must have caused the confusion. I fixed it by getting rid of the extra services.yaml file.

Thanks for the update!
