Error when making a migration on doctrine

Question

I'm trying to create a table into a sql server by making a migration for the entity I just created, but it throws an exception when executing the query:

SQLSTATE [42000, 15135]: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Object is invalid. Extended properties are not permitted on 'dbo.[user].roles', or the object does not exist.

By using maker-bundle I created a new User entity

I made the migration:

$ php bin/console make:migration

  Success!


 Next: Review the new migration "src/Migrations/Version20181121121145.php"
 Then: Run the migration with php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
 See https://symfony.com/doc/current/bundles/DoctrineMigrationsBundle/index.html

Then when migrating the migration:

$ php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

Thanks in advance.

First Solution:

I opened SQL Server Management Studio and tested one by one the three queries. The first two worked just find but the third one failed, so I did what @sepupic said and it worked.

Can somebody explain me why when I made the migration using the maker-bundle, the query below:

$this->addSql('EXEC sp_addextendedproperty N\'MS_Description\', N\'(DC2Type:json)\', N\'SCHEMA\', \'dbo\', N\'TABLE\', \'[user]\', N\'COLUMN\', roles');

din't show user instead of [user]?

Final Solution It seems to be 'user' is a reserved word, so I refactored the class to a different name and it worked just fine from the beginning to the end

Answer 1

The problem is that 'user' is a reserved word in sql server, so I refactored the class to a different name and it worked just fine from the beginning to the end

Answer 2

Your code should look like this:

EXEC sp_addextendedproperty N'MS_Description', N'(DC2Type:json)', N'SCHEMA', 'dbo', N'TABLE', 'user', N'COLUMN', 'roles'

The error told you that the object 'dbo.[user].roles' does not exist and in fact your object is 'dbo.user.roles' without brackets, so you should use 'user' as parameter for your table, not '[user]'
