Ensure...

1. You're using the .NET Core SDK 2.0

2. You ran dotnet restore on the project
3. You cd ed to the project's ( *.csproj ) directory

mehtanilay10 commented on Jun 28

Yes, i am using 2.0 SDK and tried for dotnet restored on project but still got same error.

Align your package versions.

Either use preview1 packages or preview2. Mix of those are not supported.

smitpatel commented on Jun 28 Contributor

Also to use dotnet ef correctly, you need to install Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design package.

mehtanilay10 commented on Jun 28

Added Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design and also change all to packages to preview1 still facing
same error!

Does running dotnet build pass?

mehtanilay10 commented on Jun 28 edited

yes, project build successfully. But gives only error for CLI

bricelam commented on Jun 29 Member

...and you're certain dir lists your *.csproj and dotnet --info says 2.0.0?

bricelam commented on Jun 29 Member

(I know these are stupid questions, but I honestly have no idea what could be going wrong.)

You may need to follow up on dotnet/cli. Something is going wrong before the EF code gets a chance to
run.

If you want to check on my machine then i will give remote access, so you can see what's going wrong.

I cloned the repo posted.

Updated the CodeFirst.csproj as follows.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

<MvcRazorCompileOnPublish>true</MvcRazorCompileOnPublish>

</Project>

In the directory D:\EntityFrameworkCore\EntityFramework\CodeFirst

dotnet restore
dotnet ef
and it worked.

I had to remove PackageTargetFallback due to this NuGet/NuGet.Client#1495 and I could not find where
AssetTargetFallBack is set.

mehtanilay10 commented on Jun 29

@smitpatel Thanks a lot for solving this issue ;)

Finally it was removed error from CMD but when i am using package manager in VS 2017 15.3 it gives same
error. May be this is VS's Issue.

smitpatel commented on Jun 29 edited Contributor

By default Package Manager Console (PMC) is rooted at dir containing the solution file.
dotnet ef requires to be operated in directory containing csproj file. The only way to invoke dotnet ef
in PMC, you need to manually cd into the correct folder where your csproj file is located. Changing anything
else in PMC has no effect current directory.

For best user experience, use PMC commands for EF (Add-Migration & friends) in PMC.

I has this issue and like to share.

i had the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet as <PackageReference> because i uesd the GUI

package manager to install it.

when i changed it to <DotNetCliToolReference> and then dotnet restore , this fixed it.

eg Use:
<DotNetCliToolReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet" Version="2.0.0" />
Not
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet" Version="2.0.0" />

That last thing worked for me

In my case i had to change both \library-management\LibraryData\LibraryData.csproj and \library-
management\Library\Library.csproj from to

My God, this library mangement is from github, orginally a core 1.1 web app I hope realy with 2.0 and
webpack things will be stable and change too much.

AliBayatGH commented on Oct 6 edited

This worked for me:

The EF tools for the CLI are provided in Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet. To install this package,
add it to the DotNetCliToolReference collection in the .csproj file, You have to install this package by editing
the .csproj file; you can't use the install-package command or the package manager GUI. You can edit the
.csproj file by right-clicking the project name in Solution Explorer and selecting Edit XXX.csproj.
