转换约束将数组转换为字符串转换

Question

I am trying to translate my own constraint messages defined in validation.yml. I have something like this:

Adviser\WebServicesBundle\Entity\Messages:
    problem:
            - Type:
                type: string
            - NotBlank: ~
            - Length:
                min: 2
                max: 1000
                minMessage: { message: 'author' }

I need to translate the tag minMessage, it works fine if I put a text directly. I have a file named validators.es.yml inside the directory "Resources/translation" where is located the translation message:

author: "Message too short"

I also have proved using a xlf format adding the following content overriding the file validators.es.xlf:

<trans-unit id="81">
            <source>author</source>
            <target>Message too short</target>
</trans-unit>

I get the same error in both cases, "Array to string conversion" when I submit the form to force the message. This is the piece of code which throws the exception:

     $domain = 'messages';
    }
    $id = (string) $id;
    $catalogue = $this->getCatalogue($locale);
    $locale = $catalogue->getLocale();
    while (!$catalogue->defines($id, $domain)) {

I have followed carefully this documentation with no success http://symfony.com/doc/2.7/book/translation.html#translating-constraint-messages

I am currently working with symfony 2.7 and any other translations work fine throughout the whole project. I just have this problem with own constraint messages, I don't understand why the validation.yml file can't get the defined messages. Is there a way to achieve this?

I can see that your translation file is different from what is in symfony documentation:

<class name="AppBundle\Entity\Author">
    <property name="name">
        <constraint name="NotBlank">
            <option name="message">author.name.not_blank</option>
        </constraint>
    </property>
</class>

So it's simply not enough to just provide translation as usual for validation messages.
