The website encountered an unexpected error. Please try again later.

Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityStorageException: SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'uuid' cannot be null: INSERT INTO {users} (uid, uuid, langcode) VALUES (:db_insert_placeholder_0, :db_insert_placeholder_1, :db_insert_placeholder_2); Array

For those how have the same problem, this is the solution :
-> You need to create a new instance of user in the contructor as this below

  public function __construct(
    EntityRepositoryInterface $entity_repository,
    LanguageManagerInterface $language_manager,
    EntityTypeBundleInfoInterface $entityTypeBundleInfo = NULL,
    TimeInterface $time = NULL,
    ModuleHandlerInterface $moduleHandler
  ) {
    $user = User::create();
    $this->setEntity($user);
    $this->setModuleHandler($moduleHandler);

    parent::__construct($entity_repository, $language_manager, $entityTypeBundleInfo, $time);
  }

Hope it will help !

In case anyone else stumbles upon this: if errors such as missing fields occur, you may have forgotten to submit the parent form.
