Unable to inject Entity Repository into service - dependency-injection

Question

I'm currently setting up an application with Symfony 3 and Doctrine 2.5 and I'm trying to inject an entity repository into a service and I keep getting the following error:
Type error: Argument 1 passed to UserService::setUserRepository() must
be an instance of UserRepository, instance of
Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository given, called in
appDevDebugProjectContainer.php on line 373
This is how wire things up in my services.yml:
service_user:
class: UserService
calls:
- [setUserRepository, ["#service_user_repository"]]
service_user_repository:
class: UserRepository
factory: ["#doctrine.orm.entity_manager", getRepository]
arguments: [Entity\User]
This is my UserService:
<?php
class UserService {
protected $userRepository;
public function setUserRepository( UserRepository $userRepository )
{
$this->userRepository = $userRepository;
}
}
And this is my UserRepository:
<?php
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository;
class UserRepository extends EntityRepository {
}
I have checked and double checked my namespaces and class names, all seem to check out fine.
How do I inject an entity repository into a service with Symfony 3 service wiring?

As mentioned in comment, everything you've showed looks fine.
But since you're getting from entity manager an EntityRepository instance instead of UserRepository, it means that you didn't configured User entity to have custom (UserRepository) repository class.
If you use YAML mapping, it should be something like:
Entity\User:
repositoryClass: UserRepository
# rest of mapping
