Specified non-existing directory /vich/uploader-bundle as Doctrine mapping source

Question

I'm trying to install/update my packages. However, when I run composer install, I get the following error.

Specified non-existing directory "/home/wwwroot/htdocs/vendor/vich/uploader-bundle/Resources/config/doctrine" as Doctrine mapping source.

Does this have something to do with the composer versions? Is a version too old or too new? Am I missing a config? I tried switching and playing around with the versions, but I can't find a solution.

Answer 1

In my case, I installed the symfony/doctrine-bridge dependency in version 5.3 and it works:

composer require "symfony/doctrine-bridge":"5.3.*"

Answer 2

For anyone still having this problem when trying to upgrade to Symfony 5.4, the VichUploaderBundle project site addressed this in issue 1282 .

You need to make sure doctrine/DoctrineBundle is version 2.5+. Note: Symfony/doctrine-bridge is a prerequisite of other Symfony packages so it is already included and probably already upgraded when they are upgraded so it doesn't help to downgrade (at least for me).
