Method not found exception during Add-Migration MyFirstMigration

[EtienneLaneville]

I am trying to build the sample application described in the Wiki page and I am getting the following exception when executing Add-Migration MyFirstMigration in the PMC:

Method not found: 'Void CoreTypeMappingParameters..ctor(System.Type, Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Storage.ValueConversion.ValueConverter, Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.ChangeTracking.ValueComparer, Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.ChangeTracking.ValueComparer, System.Func`3<Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.IProperty,Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.IEntityType,Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.ValueGeneration.ValueGenerator>)'.

I have added the following Packages to the project:

• EntityFrameworkCore.Jet (5.0.0-alpha.1)
• Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore (7.0.0-preview.5.22302.2)
• Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design (7.0.0-preview.5.22302.2)
• Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Relational (7.0.0-preview.5.22302.2)
• System.Data.OleDb (7.0.0-preview.5.22301.12)

This is a Windows Forms project targeting .NET 6, built in Visual Studio 2022. Here are the steps I took:

1. Created new project.
2. Created BloggingContext.cs file in Models folder.
3. Added code from Wiki to BloggingContext.cs.
4. Added Packages mentioned above.
5. Opened Package Manager Console.
6. Executed Install-Package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools and got the following warning: Install-Package : Already referencing a newer version of 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools'..
7. Executed Add-Migration MyFirstMigration.

Here is the entire output from the PMC:

Looks like you're mixing different version of EF Core

I can see that you have used EntityFrameworkCore.Jet (5.0.0-alpha.1). As a version 5, it targets EF Core 5

All the other packages you mentioned are 7.0.0-preview.5.22302.2 which is a preview version of the next release of EF Core (not sure why you are running a preview version and hadn't gone with the stable 6.0.x EF Core 6)

Anyway, all the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore and System.Data.OleDb need to reference the 5.0.x EF Core 5 packages

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore (5.0.17) Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design (5.0.17) Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Relational (5.0.17) System.Data.OleDb (5.0.0)

You should be fine for your project to stay on .Net 6, but if you have other problems you may want to try changing to .Net 5 as well

OK, yes, I see that now, there is a warning on the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore package:

Detected package version outside of dependency constraint: EntityFrameworkCore.Jet 5.0.0-alpha.1 requires Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore (>= 5.0.14 && < 6.0.0) but version Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore 7.0.0-preview.5.22302.2 was resolved.

Thanks for your quick response, MyFirstMigration was succesful:
