You have two contexts: PromoteMyNameEntities1 and ApplicationDbContext. The PromoteMyNameEntities1 don't extends IdentityDbContext, because of this you have this error. — Jose Luis, May 05 '16 at 09:38
Something like this: public ApplicationDbContext() : base("PromoteMyNameEntities1", throwIfV1Schema: false) — Jose Luis, May 05 '16 at 09:42
do i need to first link them then i need to use code above in idenitymodel.cs — , May 05 '16 at 09:44
no, no, I deleted this question, I'm sorry. You are telling EF that you have two databases, one for users, other for you model. You need to point to the same fisical database. — Jose Luis, May 05 '16 at 09:45
I am having only one database . EIther I use one connection string or two same error exist — , May 05 '16 at 09:46
you can see in both connection string db name and connection is same — , May 05 '16 at 09:46
In the migrations folder, do you have two Configuration.cs classes, one for user's context and other for you model context? I have two. If you want to have two separated contexts. — Jose Luis, May 05 '16 at 09:52
i am using dbfirst approach so i am not having migrations folder — , May 05 '16 at 09:54
No, I use Code First, with migrations. I have two configuration classes. And separate migrations for users or model. — Jose Luis, May 05 '16 at 09:58

Point 1 : I have seen in your web.config you are having two connections string but both are using same connection and same db so you don't require second one . Remove the below line from your web.config

<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="data source=Dell-PC\SQLEXPRESS;initial catalog=PromoteMyName;integrated security=True;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

Point 2 : I think you have done some trouble with inbuilt Membership Db Sure Short Solution for you problem is go to your db remove the Aspnet / Inbuilt tables ( i mean to drop the tables in db that are created by code first membership )

After removing those tables . Now Clean the Solution and Then ReBuild the solution , Then Run the Solution It will automatically create the new memebership tables in the database .
