cakephp - cant find the error on save record in Cakephp4

Question

I am trying to save a new record from form data in cakephp4. This code worked in cakephp3.2 and has been updated but doesnt work. My issue is that I just get returned false? I cant do much with a 'false' when i try to save . I tried getErrors on $tutor which wasnt recognized either. How do I find out where the error is?

    $tutor = $this->Tutors->newEmptyEntity();
            $tutor = $this->Tutors->patchEntity($tutor,$saveData,
                [
                    'associated' => [
                            'AvailabilityForTutors'=>["validate"=>false],
                            'AvailabilityForAssessments'=>["validate"=>false],
                            'Subjects'=>["validate"=>false]
                    ],
                    "validate"=>false
                ]);
            
            // debug($tutor);
              
            $tutor = $this->Tutors->save($tutor,[
                'validate' => false,
                'associated' => [
                    'AvailabilityForTutors',
                     'AvailabilityForAssessments',
                    'Subjects'
                ]
            ]);
        
             debug($tutor);//returns false? this doesnt tell me anything

Answer 1

I changed the return value on save and can test for errors

$result = $this->Tutors->save($NewTutor,[

I can get erros in NewTutor
