Unable to determine the provider name for provider factory of type 'System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteFactory'. with the Nuget package version 1.0.94.1

Question

I am getting this error with the Nuget package for SQLite 1.0.94.1. I fiddled around with the various app.config sections, helped by similar questions about previous versions of this package, but I cannot get it to work. Below is the app.config as I found it after installing the Nuget package. I deleted the app.config prior to installing it. I only added the connectionstrings after that.

So, where is the problem??

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="entityFramework" type="System.Data.Entity.Internal.ConfigFile.EntityFrameworkSection, EntityFramework, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" requirePermission="false" />
  </configSections>
  <!--Added by me, the rest of the app.config was constructed by installing the SQLite package -->
  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="PrivateMessengerContext"  connectionString="DataSource=|DataDirectory|\PrivateMessengerDb.db" providerName="System.Data.SQLite.EF6"/>
    <add name="PasswordContext" connectionString="DataSource=|DataDirectory|\PasswordDb.db" providerName="System.Data.SQLite.EF6"/>
  </connectionStrings>
  <system.data>
    <!--
        NOTE: The extra "remove" element below is to prevent the design-time

          appears to only consider the first ADO.NET provider in the list
          within the resulting "app.config" or "web.config" file.

Answer 1

Add one more provider

<provider invariantName="System.Data.SQLite" type="System.Data.SQLite.EF6.SQLiteProviderServices, System.Data.SQLite.EF6" />

move

<add name="SQLite Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.SQLite" description=".NET Framework Data Provider for SQLite" type="System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteFactory, System.Data.SQLite" />

bellow

<remove invariant="System.Data.SQLite" />

and change the provider name to providerName="System.Data.SQLite in your connection string.

Answer 2

What worked for me was to follow the comment on 2015-04-29 08:33:33 in the SQLite ticket:

If you switch project target platform from 4.5.1 to 4 and reinstall nuget package you will have it all working(even if you later return it back to 4.5.1)"

Might have a similar effect on config to Mihail's answer, not sure.
