I created an extension with a domain model Message. This model has a relation m:n with the TYPO3 pages (the one which has the details of the pages, like title, issite_root etc) table. However, by using the mapping to existing tables option, it gives me type error saying page :
The configured type field for table "pages" is of type int(11) unsigned
This means the type field can not be used for defining the record type.
You have to configure the mappings yourself if you want to map to this
table or extend the correlated class
So I just create the relation without mapping, so that I can later map it from setup.txt.

The I created model Pages in MyExt/Classes/Domain/Model/ with all the getters/setters and repository in MyExt/Classes/Domain/Repository/.
In my setup.txt I did this:
config.tx_extbase {
persistence{
enableAutomaticCacheClearing = 1
updateReferenceIndex = 0
classes {
Tx_Playfield_Domain_Model_Pages {
mapping {
tableName = pages
columns {
uid.mapOnProperty = uid
pid.mapOnProperty = pid
sorting.mapOnProperty = sorting
title.mapOnProperty = title
subtitle.mapOnProperty = subtitle
}
}
}
}
}
}
But when I try to access the Pages model I created,
var_dump($this->pagesRepository->findByUid(74));
its searching for tx_playfield_domain_model_pages which does not exists, it shows
Table 'typo3.tx_playfield_domain_model_pages' doesn't exist: SELECT tx_playfield_domain_model_pages.* FROM tx_playfield_domain_model_pages WHERE tx_playfield_domain_model_pages.uid = '74' LIMIT 1
What am I missing here?
Update
After following http://t3-developer.com/extbase-fluid/cheats-extbase/model/tabelle-pages-in-extbase/ suggested by @Michael I get an empty result from $this->pagesRepository->findByUid(74)
setup.txt is loading. I did this to check it:
plugin.tx_playfield{
settings{
temp=yes
}
}
And this is being accessed from my controller.
