MVC scaffolding does not support Entity Framework 6 or later

问题

Just upgraded to Entity Framework 6 to take a look. I'm using MVC4.

But i recieve this message when trying to make a controller from a model and context.

MVC scaffolding does not support Entity Framework 6 or later

Thought this could use some expanding :) As mentioned above ASP.NET MVC 4 scaffolding does not support EF6 or higher. This means that an older EF, compatible with MVC 4 will have to be installed. To do this:

1. Open the Package Manager Console:
   • select TOOLS -> Library Package Manager -> Package Manager Console

2. In the Package Manager Console, uninstall the current EF package by executing the following command:

   UnInstall-Package EntityFramework -Version <version number>

   *Where <version number> is the version number of the EF currently installed.
   *NOTE: to find out what EF version is installed, run the following command in the Package Manager Console:

   Get-Package EntityFramework

3. To avoid potential metadata problems the providers entry in the Web.config file will need to be removed:

   • Open the Web.config file in the project directory.

   • Delete the following lines:

     <providers> <provider invariantName=System.Data.SqlClient type=System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer /> </providers>

4. Now, in the Package Manager Console Execute the following command to install Entity Framework 5.0.0:

   Install-Package EntityFramework -Version 5.0.0

After a bit more digging

ASP.NET MVC 4 scaffolding does not support Entity Framework 6 or higher. Support of scaffolding of Entity Framework 6 is targeted for the next release of ASP.NET MVC.

So looks like ill wait until MVC 5 is properly released

ASP.NET MVC 4 scaffolding does not support Entity Framework 6 or later. Support for scaffolding will be included in MVC5. Work around is to use EF5 for scaffolding and then upgrade to EF6.

Workaround which worked for me to scaffold controllers and views for MVC 4 and EF 6:

1. Use an EXISTING OR NEW MVC 5 Project and copy the Entity Data Model for which you want to create your scaffolding in MVC 4.
2. Add the Entity Data Model to your MVC 5 DBContext
3. Create your scaffolded controller and views in the MVC 5 Project which obviously works with EF 6.
4. Copy the generated views from MVC 5 to your old MVC 4 Project

This is a solution to generate scaffolding if you do not want to downgrade the EF Version.

For me this worked out of the box
