Call to method setCurrentUri fails in Symfony/SonataUserBundle setup

Question

I am trying to set up Symfony with the SonataUserBundle. User registration and login works fine. When I try to call up the /profile view, however I get the following error:

Attempted to call method "setCurrentUri" on class "Knp\Menu\MenuItem" in F:\<my project path>\vendor\sonata-project\user-bundle\Block\ProfileMenuBlockService.php line 91. Did you mean to call: "setCurrent"?

The last notice in the "event list" before the error is

INFO - [cms::renderBlock] block.id=53, block.type=sonata.user.block.menu

Has anyone encountered this error before and can provide information on how to resolve it?

TIA Matt

Answer 1

What versions of KnpMenu and SonataBlockBundle are you using? Please check your composer.json to be sure.

The setCurrentUri method has been deprecated as of KnpMenu v. 2.0, and the composer.json of SonataBlockBundle does not require KnpMenu anywhere but in dev install. So, this leads to a possibility that you could have required a fresher version of knplabs/knp-menu-bundle that is not yet supported by Sonata bundle.

Try requiring knplabs/knp-menu-bundle in 1.1.x:

{
    ...
    "require": {
        "knplabs/knp-menu-bundle": "~1.1"
    },
    ...
}

Answer 2

I had same issue, This is my solution that you can preserve KnpMenu V2.

-You change setCurrentUri to setCurrent (because KNP changed code) in C:\path\vendor\sonata-project\user-bundle\Block\ProfileMenuBlockService.php

-You can have this problem, Method "currentAncestor" for object "Knp\Menu\MenuItem" does not exist in Sonata

And this works for me.

I encountered the same problem, but downgrade to Knpmenu version 1 is not possible for our project. Because of some code update the June 16th, it is now possible to use Sonata User Bundle and Knp Menu Version 2.

Please, have a look on my composer.json :

"require": {
    "php": ">=5.3.9",
    "symfony/symfony": "2.7.*",
    "doctrine/orm": "^2.4.8",
    "doctrine/doctrine-bundle": "~1.4",
    "doctrine/doctrine-fixtures-bundle": "dev-master",
    "doctrine/migrations": "dev-master",
    "doctrine/doctrine-migrations-bundle": "dev-master",
    "symfony/assetic-bundle": "~2.3",
    "symfony/swiftmailer-bundle": "~2.3",
    "symfony/monolog-bundle": "~2.4",
    "sensio/distribution-bundle": "~4.0",
    "sensio/framework-extra-bundle": "^3.0.2",
    "incenteev/composer-parameter-handler": "~2.0",
    "friendsofsymfony/user-bundle": "~1.3",
    "friendsofsymfony/message-bundle": "^1.2",
    "sonata-project/admin-bundle": "^2.3",
    "sonata-project/doctrine-orm-admin-bundle": "^2.3",
    "sonata-project/easy-extends-bundle": "^2.1",
    "sonata-project/user-bundle": "dev-master",
    "sonata-project/datagrid-bundle": "dev-master",
    "sonata-project/block-bundle": "~2.2,>=2.2.7,<2.3",
    "sonata-project/exporter": "^1.4",
    "sonata-project/intl-bundle": "^2.2",
    "knplabs/knp-menu-bundle": "~2.0",
    "knplabs/knp-menu": "~2.0"
},

As you can see, sonata-project/user-bundle is under dev-master version and I had to add sonata-project/datagrid-bundle in dev-master

Hope to help developpers who want want to preserve KnpMenu V2 !
