I got the same message, so I added symfony/property-access to the composer require

[alexislefebvre]

We had a similar issue and we fixed it by enabling property_access: ~ in the configuration: https://github.com/liip/LiipTestFixturesBundle/pull/130/files#diff-08d22d90f97017739fe1d8a0319928f3c65f836c4db96ab13aeae7c640be073d

[sebheitzmann]

should be added to the dependency

[theofidry]

This is not a problem of dependency, nelmio/alice has a require on symfony/property-access. The problem is trying to get the property_access service which is not registered if framework_bundle.property_access is not enabled.

So this likely requires to check the framework bundle configuration in the bundle and throw a more user-friendly error.
