I got problems with persisting many to many self referencing relations. I receive error:

The class 'Doctrine\ORM\Persisters\ManyToManyPersister' was not found in the chain configured namespaces

This happens when I remove all children form item saved with them. Leaving at least one don't make error happen. Also if I initially save entity with no children everything works fine.

/**
  * West\AlbumBundle\Entity\Album
  *
  * @ORM\Table(name="albums")
  * @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="West\AlbumBundle\Entity\AlbumRepository")
  * @ORM\HasLifecycleCallbacks
  */
 class Album extends Entity implements CrudEntity
 {

     /**
      * @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Album")
      * @ORM\JoinTable(name="albums_relations",
      *         joinColumns={@ORM\JoinColumn(name="album_id", referencedColumnName="id")},
      *         inverseJoinColumns={@ORM\JoinColumn(name="related_album_id", referencedColumnName="id")}
      * ) 
      * @var ArrayCollection
      */
      protected $related_albums;
}

If you're testing with Symfony2 forms remember to set

"by_reference" => false
