Unable to set a dbal connection password that starts with '@' using MySQL PDO #7402

Hello,

I was trying to set my dbal connection using doctrine with MySQL PDO. When setting the yaml config file to use password '@SomePassword01' the framework will expect an object reference rather than a string.
This causes an exception: InvalidTypeException: Invalid type for path "doctrine.dbal.connections.default.password". Expected scalar, but got object.

Can you please have a look?
If this won't be fixed can you please at least make sure than the password requirement are mentioned correctly.

Using standard installation 2.2.0
MySQL Server 5.6
PHP 5.4.12

Hi stood,
Can you check my comment above I have posted both the parameters and the config file (doctrine section).
Please let me know if you may need the complete file

I tried test when used a password with '@' and it's ok. Plz test connection with pdo but without sf2

@mboughaba

Please note that the password must start with '@'
It is working without sf2.
Once I have changed my root password (removing the @ sign from the beginning of the it) it works.

Yes and it's ok for me but test with windows platform. Plz test connect without sf2?

I am also using windows (win7) with MySQL 5.6.10. I am able to connect without sf2 the problem occurs only when trying to configure doctrine dbal using from the online _configurator or by changing manually the yaml file.

Have you test with an other password without '@' ?

@benamlas Have you try to double quote the value in your config.yml & in your parameters.yml?

@mboughaba

@stood, any password is working as long as it doesn't start with '@'
@egeloen yes I have tried to surround it with double quotes rather than single quotes but still not working.

Seems that the framework is expecting an object reference after the '@' rather than parsing it as a simple string.

@benamlas When I said you to double quote values, I don't point the fact to use double instead of single quote, I point the fact to quote the injected parameter ("%database_password%").

Still the same exception (InvalidTypeException: Invalid type for path "doctrine.dbal.connections.default.password". Expected scalar, but got object.) even with config.yml and parameters.yml entry password double quoted.

@benamlas @egeloen @stood The problem is not with the YAML parser itself, but the way symfony handles the parameter strings inside the YamlLoader (and Dumper). So escaping, doubel/single-quoting the parameter values won't help. I have fixed this (because I had a mailer password starting with '@'), but I don't know when this will be merged unfortunately. Changing the password for now might be the only fast solution at the moment.

Indeed that what I was expecting ... The exception is clear enough. However, I was thinkig that it is because of the YAML parsing.
tnx for the highlight @tPl0ch

I solve this writing the password in this way:

"@@database_password"
