I have code like this
public class Person<T>
{
public Person()
{
Result = default(T);
}
public bool IsValid { get; set; }
public T Result { get; set; }
public int StatusCode { get; set; }
}
public class PersonValidator<T> : AbstractValidator<Person<T>>
{
public PersonValidator()
{
RuleFor(r => r.StatusCode).GreaterThan(0);
}
}
in Startup.cs
mvcBuilder.AddFluentValidation(fv => fv.RegisterValidatorsFromAssemblyContaining(typeof(PersonValidator<>)));
There is no error and error count is coming zero even though rule is not satisfied.
When I remove this T from PersonValidator and update AbstractValidator<Person<T>> to AbstractValidator<Person<long>> then it works fine.
I have added validators as PersonValidator. Also registered validator as above. I have to validate generic class, please help understand what is going wrong here, and how I can fix it.
I've been stuck with below exception from OnModelCreating() in DBContext and struggling to find the cause or a solution. Can't find much help online either.

It was a weird situation, the references to the project that has my pocos were out of sync and were not getting rebuilt when I built my solution. One of the project is a Workflow console app targeting x86 platform. I changed to AnyCPU for all the projects in my sln. And magically ot worked again.
I was trying to add a new column/property to ine of my poco entity.
I was having this problem too, because I made a nullable database column non-nullable and Visual Studio didn't seem to want to cooperate with the change.
Deleting bin and obj folders, as well as rebuilding, didn't seem to do it.
As a workaround, I just made it nullable again. It's interesting because I'm not sure where VS is caching the nullable part--a question to be answered when I'm under less tight deadlines. :)
I am working with Entity Framework Code First and MVC 5. When I created my application with Individual User Accounts Authentication I was given an Account controller and along with it all the required classes and code that is needed to get the Indiv User Accounts authentication to work.
Among the code already in place was this:
public class ApplicationDbContext : IdentityDbContext<ApplicationUser>
{
public ApplicationDbContext() : base("DXContext", throwIfV1Schema: false)
{
}
public static ApplicationDbContext Create()
{
return new ApplicationDbContext();
}
}
But then I went ahead and created my own context using code first, so I now have the following too:
public class DXContext : DbContext
{
public DXContext() : base("DXContext")
{
}
public DbSet<ApplicationUser> Users { get; set; }
public DbSet<IdentityRole> Roles { get; set; }
public DbSet<Artist> Artists { get; set; }
public DbSet<Paintings> Paintings { get; set; }
}
Finally I have the following seed method to add some data for me to work with whilst developing:
protected override void Seed(DXContext context)
{
try
{
if (!context.Roles.Any(r => r.Name == "Admin"))
{
var store = new RoleStore<IdentityRole>(context);
var manager = new RoleManager<IdentityRole>(store);
var role = new IdentityRole { Name = "Admin" };
manager.Create(role);
}
context.SaveChanges();
if (!context.Users.Any(u => u.UserName == "James"))
{
var store = new UserStore<ApplicationUser>(context);
var manager = new UserManager<ApplicationUser>(store);
var user = new ApplicationUser { UserName = "James" };
manager.Create(user, "ChangeAsap1#");
manager.AddToRole(user.Id, "Admin");
}
context.SaveChanges();
string userId = "";
userId = context.Users.FirstOrDefault().Id;
var artists = new List<Artist>
{
new Artist { FName = "Salvador", LName = "Dali", ImgURL = "http://i62.tinypic.com/ss8txxn.jpg", UrlFriendly = "salvador-dali", Verified = true, ApplicationUserId = userId },
};
artists.ForEach(a => context.Artists.Add(a));
context.SaveChanges();
var paintings = new List<Painting>
{
new Painting { Title = "The Persistence of Memory", ImgUrl = "http://i62.tinypic.com/xx8tssn.jpg", ArtistId = 1, Verified = true, ApplicationUserId = userId }
};
paintings.ForEach(p => context.Paintings.Add(p));
context.SaveChanges();
}
catch (DbEntityValidationException ex)
{
foreach (var validationErrors in ex.EntityValidationErrors)
{
foreach (var validationError in validationErrors.ValidationErrors)
{
Trace.TraceInformation("Property: {0} Error: {1}", validationError.PropertyName, validationError.ErrorMessage);
}
}
}
}
My solution builds fine, but when I try and access a controller that requires access to the database I get the following error:
DX.DOMAIN.Context.IdentityUserLogin: : EntityType 'IdentityUserLogin' has no key defined. Define the key for this EntityType.
DX.DOMAIN.Context.IdentityUserRole: : EntityType 'IdentityUserRole' has no key defined. Define the key for this EntityType.
What am I doing wrong? Is it because I have two contexts?
UPDATE
After reading Augusto's reply, I went with Option 3. Here is what my DXContext class looks like now:
public class DXContext : DbContext
{
public DXContext() : base("DXContext")
{
// remove default initializer
Database.SetInitializer<DXContext>(null);
Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = false;
Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
}
public DbSet<User> Users { get; set; }
public DbSet<Role> Roles { get; set; }
public DbSet<Artist> Artists { get; set; }
public DbSet<Painting> Paintings { get; set; }
public static DXContext Create()
{
return new DXContext();
}
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().ToTable("Users");
modelBuilder.Entity<Role>().ToTable("Roles");
}
public DbQuery<T> Query<T>() where T : class
{
return Set<T>().AsNoTracking();
}
}
I also added a User.cs and a Role.cs class, they look like this:
public class User
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public string FName { get; set; }
public string LName { get; set; }
}
public class Role
{
public int Id { set; get; }
public string Name { set; get; }
}
I wasn't sure if I would need a password property on the user, since the default ApplicationUser has that and a bunch of other fields!
Anyways, the above change builds fine, but again I get this error when the application is ran:
Invalid Column name UserId
UserId is an integer property on my Artist.cs
In my case I had inherited from the IdentityDbContext correctly (with my own custom types and key defined) but had inadvertantly removed the call to the base class's OnModelCreating:
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder); // I had removed this
/// Rest of on model creating here.
}
Which then fixed up my missing indexes from the identity classes and I could then generate migrations and enable migrations appropriately.
The problem is that your ApplicationUser inherits from IdentityUser, which is defined like this:
IdentityUser : IdentityUser<string, IdentityUserLogin, IdentityUserRole, IdentityUserClaim>, IUser
....
public virtual ICollection<TRole> Roles { get; private set; }
public virtual ICollection<TClaim> Claims { get; private set; }
public virtual ICollection<TLogin> Logins { get; private set; }
and their primary keys are mapped in the method OnModelCreating of the class IdentityDbContext:
modelBuilder.Entity<TUserRole>()
.HasKey(r => new {r.UserId, r.RoleId})
.ToTable("AspNetUserRoles");
modelBuilder.Entity<TUserLogin>()
.HasKey(l => new {l.LoginProvider, l.ProviderKey, l.UserId})
.ToTable("AspNetUserLogins");
and as your DXContext doesn't derive from it, those keys don't get defined.
If you dig into the sources of Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework, you will understand everything.
I came across this situation some time ago, and I found three possible solutions (maybe there are more):
Use separate DbContexts against two different databases or the same database but different tables.
Merge your DXContext with ApplicationDbContext and use one database.
Use separate DbContexts against the same table and manage their migrations accordingly.
Option 1:
See update the bottom.
Option 2:
You will end up with a DbContext like this one:
public class DXContext : IdentityDbContext<User, Role,
int, UserLogin, UserRole, UserClaim>//: DbContext
{
public DXContext()
: base("name=DXContext")
{
Database.SetInitializer<DXContext>(null);// Remove default initializer
Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = false;
}
public static DXContext Create()
{
return new DXContext();
}
//Identity and Authorization
public DbSet<UserLogin> UserLogins { get; set; }
public DbSet<UserClaim> UserClaims { get; set; }
public DbSet<UserRole> UserRoles { get; set; }
// ... your custom DbSets
public DbSet<RoleOperation> RoleOperations { get; set; }
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>();
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<OneToManyCascadeDeleteConvention>();
// Configure Asp Net Identity Tables
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().ToTable("User");
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().Property(u => u.PasswordHash).HasMaxLength(500);
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().Property(u => u.Stamp).HasMaxLength(500);
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().Property(u => u.PhoneNumber).HasMaxLength(50);
modelBuilder.Entity<Role>().ToTable("Role");
modelBuilder.Entity<UserRole>().ToTable("UserRole");
modelBuilder.Entity<UserLogin>().ToTable("UserLogin");
modelBuilder.Entity<UserClaim>().ToTable("UserClaim");
modelBuilder.Entity<UserClaim>().Property(u => u.ClaimType).HasMaxLength(150);
modelBuilder.Entity<UserClaim>().Property(u => u.ClaimValue).HasMaxLength(500);
}
}
Option 3:
You will have one DbContext equal to the option 2. Let's name it IdentityContext. And you will have another DbContext called DXContext:
public class DXContext : DbContext
{
public DXContext()
: base("name=DXContext") // connection string in the application configuration file.
{
Database.SetInitializer<DXContext>(null); // Remove default initializer
Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = false;
Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
}
// Domain Model
public DbSet<User> Users { get; set; }
// ... other custom DbSets
public static DXContext Create()
{
return new DXContext();
}
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>();
// IMPORTANT: we are mapping the entity User to the same table as the entity ApplicationUser
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().ToTable("User");
}
public DbQuery<T> Query<T>() where T : class
{
return Set<T>().AsNoTracking();
}
}
where User is:
public class User
{
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required, StringLength(100)]
public string Name { get; set; }
[Required, StringLength(128)]
public string SomeOtherColumn { get; set; }
}
With this solution, I'm mapping the entity User to the same table as the entity ApplicationUser.
Then, using Code First Migrations you'll need to generate the migrations for the IdentityContext and THEN for the DXContext, following this great post from Shailendra Chauhan: Code First Migrations with Multiple Data Contexts
You'll have to modify the migration generated for DXContext. Something like this depending on which properties are shared between ApplicationUser and User:
//CreateTable(
// "dbo.User",
// c => new
// {
// Id = c.Int(nullable: false, identity: true),
// Name = c.String(nullable: false, maxLength: 100),
// SomeOtherColumn = c.String(nullable: false, maxLength: 128),
// })
// .PrimaryKey(t => t.Id);
AddColumn("dbo.User", "SomeOtherColumn", c => c.String(nullable: false, maxLength: 128));
and then running the migrations in order (first the Identity migrations) from the global.asax or any other place of your application using this custom class:
public static class DXDatabaseMigrator
{
public static string ExecuteMigrations()
{
return string.Format("Identity migrations: {0}. DX migrations: {1}.", ExecuteIdentityMigrations(),
ExecuteDXMigrations());
}
private static string ExecuteIdentityMigrations()
{
IdentityMigrationConfiguration configuration = new IdentityMigrationConfiguration();
return RunMigrations(configuration);
}
private static string ExecuteDXMigrations()
{
DXMigrationConfiguration configuration = new DXMigrationConfiguration();
return RunMigrations(configuration);
}
private static string RunMigrations(DbMigrationsConfiguration configuration)
{
List<string> pendingMigrations;
try
{
DbMigrator migrator = new DbMigrator(configuration);
pendingMigrations = migrator.GetPendingMigrations().ToList(); // Just to be able to log which migrations were executed
if (pendingMigrations.Any())
migrator.Update();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
ExceptionManager.LogException(e);
return e.Message;
}
return !pendingMigrations.Any() ? "None" : string.Join(", ", pendingMigrations);
}
}
This way, my n-tier cross-cutting entities don't end up inheriting from AspNetIdentity classes, and therefore I don't have to import this framework in every project where I use them.
Sorry for the extensive post. I hope it could offer some guidance on this. I have already used options 2 and 3 in production environments.
UPDATE: Expand Option 1
For the last two projects I have used the 1st option: having an AspNetUser class that derives from IdentityUser, and a separate custom class called AppUser. In my case, the DbContexts are IdentityContext and DomainContext respectively. And I defined the Id of the AppUser like this:
public class AppUser : TrackableEntity
{
[Key, DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.None)]
// This Id is equal to the Id in the AspNetUser table and it's manually set.
public override int Id { get; set; }
(TrackableEntity is the custom abstract base class that I use in the overridden SaveChanges method of my DomainContext context)
I first create the AspNetUser and then the AppUser. The drawback with this approach is that you have ensured that your "CreateUser" functionality is transactional (remember that there will be two DbContexts calling SaveChanges separately). Using TransactionScope didn't work for me for some reason, so I ended up doing something ugly but that works for me:
IdentityResult identityResult = UserManager.Create(aspNetUser, model.Password);
if (!identityResult.Succeeded)
throw new TechnicalException("User creation didn't succeed", new LogObjectException(result));
AppUser appUser;
try
{
appUser = RegisterInAppUserTable(model, aspNetUser);
}
catch (Exception)
{
// Roll back
UserManager.Delete(aspNetUser);
throw;
}
(Please, if somebody comes with a better way of doing this part I appreciate commenting or proposing an edit to this answer)
The benefits are that you don't have to modify the migrations and you can use any crazy inheritance hierarchy over the AppUser without messing with the AspNetUser. And actually, I use Automatic Migrations for my IdentityContext (the context that derives from IdentityDbContext):
public sealed class IdentityMigrationConfiguration : DbMigrationsConfiguration<IdentityContext>
{
public IdentityMigrationConfiguration()
{
AutomaticMigrationsEnabled = true;
AutomaticMigrationDataLossAllowed = false;
}
protected override void Seed(IdentityContext context)
{
}
}
This approach also has the benefit of avoiding to have your n-tier cross-cutting entities inheriting from AspNetIdentity classes.
By Changing The DbContext As Below;
protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<OneToManyCascadeDeleteConvention>();
modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<ManyToManyCascadeDeleteConvention>();
}
Just adding in OnModelCreating method call to base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder); and it becomes fine. I am using EF6.
Special Thanks To #The Senator
For those who use ASP.NET Identity 2.1 and have changed the primary key from the default string to either int or Guid, if you're still getting
EntityType 'xxxxUserLogin' has no key defined. Define the key for this EntityType.
EntityType 'xxxxUserRole' has no key defined. Define the key for this EntityType.
you probably just forgot to specify the new key type on IdentityDbContext:
public class AppIdentityDbContext : IdentityDbContext<
AppUser, AppRole, int, AppUserLogin, AppUserRole, AppUserClaim>
{
public AppIdentityDbContext()
: base("MY_CONNECTION_STRING")
{
}
......
}
If you just have
public class AppIdentityDbContext : IdentityDbContext
{
......
}
or even
public class AppIdentityDbContext : IdentityDbContext<AppUser>
{
......
}
you will get that 'no key defined' error when you are trying to add migrations or update the database.
protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
//foreach (var relationship in modelBuilder.Model.GetEntityTypes().SelectMany(e => e.GetForeignKeys()))
// relationship.DeleteBehavior = DeleteBehavior.Restrict;
modelBuilder.Entity<User>().ToTable("Users");
modelBuilder.Entity<IdentityRole<string>>().ToTable("Roles");
modelBuilder.Entity<IdentityUserToken<string>>().ToTable("UserTokens");
modelBuilder.Entity<IdentityUserClaim<string>>().ToTable("UserClaims");
modelBuilder.Entity<IdentityUserLogin<string>>().ToTable("UserLogins");
modelBuilder.Entity<IdentityRoleClaim<string>>().ToTable("RoleClaims");
modelBuilder.Entity<IdentityUserRole<string>>().ToTable("UserRoles");
}
}
My issue was similar - I had a new table i was creating that ahd to tie in to the identity users. After reading the above answers, realized it had to do with IsdentityUser and the inherited properites. I already had Identity set up as its own Context, so to avoid inherently tying the two together, rather than using the related user table as a true EF property, I set up a non-mapped property with the query to get the related entities. (DataManager is set up to retrieve the current context in which OtherEntity exists.)
[Table("UserOtherEntity")]
public partial class UserOtherEntity
{
public Guid UserOtherEntityId { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(128)]
public string UserId { get; set; }
[Required]
public Guid OtherEntityId { get; set; }
public virtual OtherEntity OtherEntity { get; set; }
}
public partial class UserOtherEntity : DataManager
{
public static IEnumerable<OtherEntity> GetOtherEntitiesByUserId(string userId)
{
return Connect2Context.UserOtherEntities.Where(ue => ue.UserId == userId).Select(ue => ue.OtherEntity);
}
}
public partial class ApplicationUser : IdentityUser
{
public async Task<ClaimsIdentity> GenerateUserIdentityAsync(UserManager<ApplicationUser> manager)
{
// Note the authenticationType must match the one defined in CookieAuthenticationOptions.AuthenticationType
var userIdentity = await manager.CreateIdentityAsync(this, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie);
// Add custom user claims here
return userIdentity;
}
[NotMapped]
public IEnumerable<OtherEntity> OtherEntities
{
get
{
return UserOtherEntities.GetOtherEntitiesByUserId(this.Id);
}
}
}
Im fairly new to ASP.NET MCV 4 as well as Mongo DB and trying to build web API.
I thought I had finally got it right but when I start the app and enter: http://localhost:50491/api/document into my browser I get this error message
The 'ObjectContent`1' type failed to serialize the response body for content type 'application/xml; charset=utf-8'.
Here is my code
This is the Document Class
public class Document
{
[BsonId]
public ObjectId DocumentID { get; set; }
public IList<string> allDocs { get; set; }
}
This is where the Connection to the DB is made:
public class MongoConnectionHelper
{
public MongoCollection<BsonDocument> collection { get; private set; }
public MongoConnectionHelper()
{
string connectionString = "mongodb://127.0.0.1";
var server = MongoServer.Create(connectionString);
if (server.State == MongoServerState.Disconnected)
{
server.Connect();
}
var conn = server.GetDatabase("cord");
collection = conn.GetCollection("Mappings");
}
Here is the ApiController Class:
public class DocumentController : ApiController
{
public readonly MongoConnectionHelper docs;
public DocumentController()
{
docs = new MongoConnectionHelper();
}
public IList<BsonDocument> getAllDocs()
{
var alldocs = (docs.collection.FindAll().ToList());
return alldocs;
}
}
I read futher on and the error message suggested:
Type 'MongoDB.Bson.BsonObjectId' with data contract name 'BsonObjectId:http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/MongoDB.Bson' is not expected. Consider using a DataContractResolver or add any types not known statically to the list of known types - for example, by using the KnownTypeAttribute attribute or by adding them to the list of known types passed to DataContractSerializer.
That is all good and well but how do I do that?
Either a) don't serialize your document classes over Web API, and create some DTOs meant to be serialized, or b) use something else as ID.
If you want an easy auto-generated ID, and you're OK with the fact that it will consume slightly more space, you can resort to the following "hack":
public class Document
{
public Document()
{
Id = ObjectId.GenerateNewId().ToString();
}
public string Id { get; set; }
}
This way, you'll get MongoIDs, but they'll be stored as a string.
If you need Web API2 responce in XML format , you need to handle the default Id like below
eg: ObjectId("507f191e810c19729de860ea")
Either you need to remove the Id from serialization.
[DataContract]
public class Document
{
[BsonId]
public string Id { get; set; }
[DataMember]
public string Title { get; set; } //other properties you use
}
Or You can change the Type of ID with custom logic
public class GuidIdGenerator : IIdGenerator
{
public object GenerateId(object container, object document)
{
return Guid.NewGuid();
}
public bool IsEmpty(object id)
{
return string.IsNullOrEmpty(id.ToString());
}
}
public class Document
{
[BsonId(IdGenerator = typeof(GuidIdGenerator))]
public string Id { get; set; }
public string Title { get; set; } //other properties you use
}
I have 2 classes:
public class Poll
{
//...
public virtual ICollection<Answer> Answers { get; set; }
}
public class Answer
{
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required]
public string Content { get; set; }
private int _amount = 0;
public int Amount
{
get { return _amount; }
set { _amount = value; }
}
}
And I need to make an Editor View.
If I try this:
#foreach (var answer in Model.Answers)
{
#Html.EditorFor(model => answer)
}
It shows everything for editing, but doesnt save changes. Controller recieves poll.Answers = null
That is because you are bypassing the advanced ID/Name generation that editors do. Since you are rendering each editor separately without any context/scope metadata, the editor renderer simply renders itself as if the model passed to it were the top-level model.
Check this question for more info:
using Html.EditorFor with an IEnumerable<T>
