Factory not being loaded in ZF2 - Missing argument 1

Question

I have a factory within Module/src/Module/Service/Factory/CourseServiceFactory.php

I have defined this factory in module.config.php as follows:

'service_manager' => array(
        'factories' => array(
            'CourseServiceFactory' => 'Module\Service\Factory\CourseServiceFactory',
        ),
),

However this factory isn't being loaded upon calling the application and I receive this error:

Warning: Missing argument 1 for Module\Service\CourseService::__construct(),

This is how my CourseServiceFactory.php looks like:

public function createService(ServiceLocatorInterface $serviceLocator)
{
    $config = $serviceLocator->get('config');

    return new CourseService($config);
}

Anyone have any idea what's wrong?

what is the arguments in your __constructor(), Module\Service\CourseService::__construct(), — Gautam Rai, Apr 27 '17 at 20:06
@akond I am sorry what do you mean by call to service locator? Aren't factories loaded on Bootstrap once you define them in module.config.php? — HelmBurger, Apr 27 '17 at 22:40
No, they are not loaded until you explicitly require them from service locator. — akond, Apr 28 '17 at 02:40

I suspect you're not implementing the factory interface which causes the service loader to be injected into the constructor.

Make sure your factory implements:

Zend\ServiceManager\FactoryInterface

See example factory here
