I'm trying to use MySQL database (ef code first approach, VS 2013 professional). I follow these instructions.
My problem is that after I enable migrations I cannot do a first migration. I use command Add-migration migrationName and I got an error:
"System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlProviderServices.GetDbProviderManifestToken(DbConnection connection) at System.Data.Entity.Core.Common.DbProviderServices.GetProviderManifestToken(DbConnection connection) at MySql.Data.Entity.MySqlManifestTokenResolver.ResolveManifestToken(DbConnection connection) ...
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.".
I tried to solved it f.e. in this way. But now I found this:
"This can be caused by not specifying a required parameter for a scenario that you are using. For example specifying a connection string without specifying the provider name."
So the problem is probably in my connenctions string.
I have my connections string from VS > Server Explorer there is "active" connection to my database. I viewed the connection properties and copied a connection string into my web.config.
In my project are references to MySql.Data, MySql.Data.Entity.EF6 and MySql.Web.
Anyone have any ideas what should I do?
