Unable to make SQLProvider work on WSL with .NET 5 and FSI

[esbenbjerre]

Describe the bug I want to use SQLProvider with SQL Server in .NET 5 FSI. I'm using WSL (Ubuntu) on Windows. No matter how I try to load it, it does not work. I have tried various workarounds posted here and online. I've tried:

• Just using #r "nuget: SQLProvider"
• Copying and referencing the dlls with ResolutionPath

No matter how I try I get one of these errors on dotnet fsi script.fsx:

error FS3033: The type provider 'FSharp.Data.Sql.SqlTypeProvider' reported an error: System.Data.SqlClient is not supported on this platform.

or

error FS3033: The type provider 'FSharp.Data.Sql.SqlTypeProvider' reported an error: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

or

To Reproduce Create blank project

dotnet new console -lang F# -o Test
cd Test
dotnet add package SQLProvider

Try to use SQLProvider from FSI

type Sql = SqlDataProvider<DatabaseVendor = Common.DatabaseProviderTypes.MSSQLSERVER_SSDT, ConnectionString = "secret">
let ctx = Sql.GetDataContext()

Expected behavior A working SQLProvider.

I can't make it work as well on OSX within a .NET 6 console app.

I tried using MSSQLSERVER_DYNAMIC and the ResolutionPath but it didn't work as well.

I use paket to make sure FSharp.Core & co are on point. I use FSharp.Core 6.0.4

Here's my paket.dependencies :

Here's my paket.references for the console app :

If anything else is needed, please let me know.

I tried using MSSQLSERVER_DYNAMIC and the ResolutionPath but it didn't work as well.

You should be using Microsoft.Data.SqlClient in conjunction with MSSQLSERVER_DYNAMIC and the ResolutionPath.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I tried but I still got issue. What Dlls should I copy in the resolution path ?

[JordanMarr]

What Dlls should I copy in the resolution path ?

It should be these:

To use another driver, Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.dll, you have to set your provider to Common.DatabaseProviderTypes.MSSQLSERVER_DYNAMIC and copy the reference files from the NuGet package to local resolutionPath 

(e.g. Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.dll, Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SNI.dll and Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.SNI.x86.dll).

Hello again,

I had to take a break from that issue but I'm back. I tried your solution but it does not work.

I am currently using a fsx for my need. Is there a way, I can get the details of the exception ? So far I just have the folowing :

I tried 'dotnet fsi --debug' bug I don't have the stack trace.

Thanks again for your help.

Using VS2022, in a console app targeting .net 6.0, I'm getting this error: error FS3033: The type provider 'FSharp.Data.Sql.SqlTypeProvider' reported an error: Unable to load one or more of the requested types.

This is in my resolution path:
