One to many mapping in Zend Framwork 2 with doctrine - doctrine-orm

Question

I am trying to make a page where i handle my invoces. I have the invoice data in one tables and the invoice rows in another table. The tables looks as follows:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `Invoices` (
`I_Id` int(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`I_Number` int(4) NOT NULL,
`I_ClientId` int(10) NOT NULL,
`I_ExtraText` text NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`I_Id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `InvoiceRows` (
`IR_Id` int(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`IR_InvoiceId` int(10) NOT NULL,
`IR_Price` int(10) NOT NULL,
`IR_Vat` smallint(2) unsigned NOT NULL,
`IR_Quantity` int(10) NOT NULL,
`IR_Text` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`IR_Id`),
KEY `IR_InvoiceId` (`IR_InvoiceId`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB
Here is my mapping:
class Invoice {
/**
* #ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="Row", mappedBy="invoice" ,cascade={"persist"})
*/
protected $rows;
}
class Row {
/**
* #ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Invoice", inversedBy="rows", cascade={"persist"})
* #ORM\JoinColumn(name="IR_InvoiceId", referencedColumnName="I_Id")
**/
private $invoice;
}
I have been trying to follow the example at the doctrine docs on how to setup a One-To-Many, Bidirectional mapping. This is then connect with Zend Framework 2 and form collections. Pulling data works very good. I get all the rows of each invoice.
My Problem is when i want to write back to the database and save my changes. When i try to save i get the following error:
An exception occurred while executing 'INSERT INTO
MVIT_ADM__InvoiceRows (IR_InvoiceId, IR_Price, IR_Vat, IR_Quantity,
IR_Text) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)' with params
{"1":null,"2":320,"3":0,"4":1,"5":"Learning your dog to sit"}:
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column
'IR_InvoiceId' cannot be null
What have i done wrong? When checking the data from the post value is not empty.

It seems IR_InvoiceId null, it expect the Id of Invoices (I_Id) value, so make sure while you are inserting the data in InvoiceRows table then here pass the Invoices (I_Id) value as IR_InvoiceId as you mention table relation..
Best Of Luck!
