I am getting null exception for configure Service. I am using Entity Framework 1.1, previously use core 1.0 and have no issue, not sure what I am missing here
{System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

public Startup(IHostingEnvironment env)
{
var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.SetBasePath(env.ContentRootPath)
.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{env.EnvironmentName}.json", optional: true)
.AddEnvironmentVariables();
found the answer, need to sorted connection-String in appsettings.json
"Data": {
"UCASAppDatabase": {
"ConnectionString": "Data Source=mysource;Initial Catalog=UCAS-DB;Integrated Security=True;Persist Security Info=True"
}
}
and in Startup.cs
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddApplicationInsightsTelemetry(Configuration);
services.AddDbContext<TestDbContext>(options =>
options.UseSqlServer(Configuration["Data:UCASAppDatabase:ConnectionString"]));
services.AddMvc();
}
I had the same problem. In my property class I just added the key DataAnnotations for the primary key attribute as follows and error was solved.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using System.Text;
namespace Treat_Data.Model
{
public class Restaurant
{
[Key]
public int Restaurant_ID { get; set; }//this is the primary key
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Address { get; set; }
public string Open_Hours { get; set; }
}
}
