I've been trying to upgrade our Entity Framework from EF6 to EF Core 3.1 and I get this weird error.

So here are the steps that I did or some info that might help

  • Current .NET framework version is 4.7.2
  • Using EF Core 6
  • Using MySQL
  • Upgrade EF Core to EF Core 3.1 (Why 3.1? We can't upgrade the class library version yet as it has a lot of dependencies and 3.1 is latest compatible version with .NET 4.7.2)
  • I'm using Devart dotConnect for MySql as provider. Also upgraded to version 8.19 (latest as of the moment)
  • Fixed all build errors and created model builders to define and map table properties and columns.

After doing all those steps, project builds without errors and project runs. However when I try to login (which obviously does a database call), it stalls. If I place a breakpoint on the actual linq query, it stalls. It does nothing. No timeout error, no exceptions, just nothing. Also I tried to check the database server log, query was not logged so definitely query didn't go through the server. I also tried to purposely put a wrong db name on the connection string, it threw an error, database didnt exist.

Anyone experienced the same?

  1. Enable the dbMonitor tool to check if the connection is opened and SQL query is sent to MySQL Server: https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/mysql/docs/?dbmonitor.html. Is there any error?

  2. Before debugging your project, make these settings in your Visual Studio to get an exception and detailed stack trace:

  • in the (Debug > Windows > Exception Settings) window, select Common Language Runtime Exceptions
  • in the (Tools > Options) window, navigate to Debugging > General and clear Enable Just My Code
