Importing pre-existing MySQL DB using Doctrine in Symfony2 I came across this error:
[DoctrineDBALDBALException]
Unknown database type enum requested, DoctrineDBALPlatformsMySqlPlatform
may not support it.
The fix was found within the Symfony2 Docs
To app/config/config.yml just under your connection info add:
mapping_types:
enum: string
