The conversion of a datetime2 data type to a datetime data type Error

Question

I have a controller:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create(Auction auction)
{
    var db = new EbuyDataContext();
    db.Auctions.Add(auction);
    db.SaveCh         


        

Answer 1

Does your columns with datetime2 datatype accepts null values. If not then you might get this error when you are not assigning a value to these columns.

By default the CodeFirst will make non nullable columns if your model does not use nullable properties. Try converting these properties to nullable datetime.
