TLDR; How do you add a full text index using Entity framework 5 coded migrations I'm having issues adding a full text index to a database using Entity framework migrations. It needs to be there from the start so I'm attempting modifying the InitialCreate migration that was automatically generated to add it. As there isn't a way to do it via the DbMigrations API I've resorted to running inline sql at the end of the 'Up' code. Sql("create fulltext catalog AppNameCatalog;"); Sql("create fulltext index on Document (Data type column Extension) key index [PK_dbo.Document] on AppNameCatalog;"); When

Background: We have a project that uses ef-migrations containing multiple (read ~60) migrations created over a long period of development. Naturally, some of these migrations also involve: dropping constraints 1 , 2 creating triggers All is unicorns and rainbows when we run Update-Database because each migration runs as a separate batch. But when creating SQL Scripts for these migrations using Update-Database -Script we encountered a few issues as described below: Problem 1: When dropping multiple constraints across multiple migration files, the script generated by EF tends to re-declare

I'm using Code-First DBContext-based EF5 setup. In DbMigrationsConfiguration.Seed I'm trying to fill DB with default dummy data. To accomplish this task, I use DbSet.AddOrUpdate method. The simplest code to illustrate my aim: j = 0; var cities = new[] { "Berlin", "Vienna", "London", "Bristol", "Rome", "Stockholm", "Oslo", "Helsinki", "Amsterdam", "Dublin" }; var cityObjects = new City[cities.Length]; foreach (string c in cities) { int id = r.NextDouble() > 0.5 ? 0 : 1; var city = new City { Id = j, Name = c, Slug = c.ToLowerInvariant(), Region = regions[id], RegionId = regions[id].Id, Reviewed

I am migrating an MVC 3 application from EF 4.3 to EF 5. I noticed that EF 5 expects a CreatedOn column in the __MigrationHistory table, which does not exist as the migrations were created by an older version. SELECT TOP (1) [c].[CreatedOn] AS [CreatedOn] FROM [dbo].[__MigrationHistory] AS [c] How do I resolve this issue without wiping my migration history? I am thinking of a query to infer the column's value from the migration name, which is in the following format: 201203111201542_MigrationName The CreatedOn column is no longer required. We attempt to query from it in order to determine

Using Identity 2.0 After registering a user, the user is created in the database, there is code in the Account controller to create an identity and sign the user in. This is when I get the error. Here is the code producing the error: var identity = await UserManager.CreateIdentityAsync(user, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie); And here is the error: The entity type IdentityRole is not part of the model for the current context. My Model looks like this: namespace MyApp.Models { public class ApplicationUser : IdentityUser { [Required] [StringLength(50)] public string FirstName { get;

I'm using EF5 code first in a simple test application at the moment to test various functions. I have defined an 'identifying relationship' between two entities which represent a one-to-many link. Here I define a PhotoCollection that has many child Photo entities; public class PhotoCollection { public int Id { get; set; } public virtual ISet<Photo> Photos { get; private set; } public PhotoCollection() { Photos = new HashSet<Photo>(); } } public class Photo { [Key, ForeignKey("Parent"), Column(Order = 1)] public int PhotoCollectionId { get; set; } [Key, Column(Order = 2)] public int PhotoId {
