Migrating to Asp.Net Identity 2.0: new columns not being created in AspNetUsers table

Question

I get the following error when I try to register a new user, using Identity 2.0 and the default MVC 5 application:

Invalid column name \'Email\'.
Invalid col         


        

Answer 1

Are you sure you got the correct User class in your Dbcontext? If you want to modify your User table you should inhert like this:

public class ApplicationDbContext : IdentityDbContext
{
    ...
}

and don t put anything like:

public DbSet Users { get; set; }

in there since it will already happen in the base class.
