The exception message pretty much solves this mystery, do you have something like this?

Contact:
  type: entity
  id:
    id:
      type: integer
      generator:
        strategy: AUTO
  fields:
    name:
        type: string
        length: 100

You don't have the "id" key in your configuration.

You have:

Application\PLibBundle\Entity\Contact:
    type: entity
    table: null
    fields:
        id:

It should be:

Application\PLibBundle\Entity\Contact:
      type: entity
      table: null
      id:
          id:
