Details

I am using translation bundle. So in my form, for each field I am having that fields for two languages. The form is rendering with multi-language options perfectly. But when I submits the form, I am getting below error:

Could not determine access type for property "translations".

        throw new NoSuchPropertyException(sprintf('Could not determine access type for property "%s".', $property));
    } else {
        throw new NoSuchPropertyException($access[self::ACCESS_NAME]);

回答1:

Most of the time this error gets thrown when you forget to initialize a collection in the constructor of your entity class.

Look at your entity class. You need to add

 $this->translations = new ArrayCollection();

to the constructor.

More generally, PropertyAccess is responsible for calling the setters/getters of your entity so usually it is a problem related to your entity class and not your form type.
