EF 6 System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext Error

Question

I recently upgraded from Entities Framework 5 to Entities Framework 6 Alpha 2 and I am getting the following error:

Method not found: \'System.Data.Ob

Answer 1

EF 6 does not have System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext. EF 6 has moved some types, including ObjectContext, from System.Data.Entity.dll into EntityFramework.dll, and changed their namespaces. The fact that you get this error suggests you haven't attempted to recompile your application, you've simply replaced EntityFramework.dll and hoped for the best. That won't work. You need to update your code to work with EF 6: you need to remove your references to System.Data.Entity.dll, and update your code to refer to the new types.

It just might be possible for the reference to the IObjectContextAdapter.ObjectContext property to be in some library you're using, but most likely it'll be in your own code. The error message (in the part you didn't include in your question) should tell you where it is coming from.
