update-database fires: "There is already an object named 'Adresses' in the database".

Question

I can't get my seed method to run on an alredy existing database. The database was a result of multiple migrations where we migrated our own created database, "Whitelabel", with the ASP.NET MVC5 Identity database (that we call "IdentityDb").

Here's an overview of the database tables:

Since this is made code-first, I used the package manager console to update the database with this command:

PM> update-database -ConfigurationTypeName DAL.DataContexts.WhitelabelMigrations.Configuration

And it fires the error "There is already an object named 'Adresses' in the database".

Here's the WhitelabelDb Context.

  using System.Data.Entity;
  using ClassLibrary.Entities;

  namespace DAL.DataContexts
  {
    public class WhitelabelDb : DbContext
  {
    public WhitelabelDb()
        : base("WhitelabelDb")
    {
    }

    public virtual DbSet<Category> CategorySet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Product> ProductSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Stock> StockSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Rating> RatingSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Discount> DiscountSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<LineItem> LineItemSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<ShoppingCart> ShoppingCartSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Invoice> InvoiceSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Customer> CustomerSet { get; set; }
    public virtual DbSet<Adress> AdressSet { get; set; }


    }
  }


 }

And here's the IdentityDb Context:

using ClassLibrary.Entities;
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework;

namespace DAL.DataContexts
{
public class IdentityDb : IdentityDbContext<ApplicationUser>
{
    public IdentityDb()
        : base("WhitelabelDb")
    {
    }  

}
}

Here's the configuration.cs file for WhitelabelMigrations:

using System.Data.Entity.Migrations;
using System;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
using System.Data.Entity.Migrations;
using System.Linq;
using ClassLibrary.Entities;


namespace DAL.DataContexts.WhitelabelMigrations
{
internal sealed class Configuration : DbMigrationsConfiguration<WhitelabelDb>
{

    public Configuration()
    {
        AutomaticMigrationsEnabled = true;
        MigrationsDirectory = @"DataContexts\WhitelabelMigrations";
    }

    protected override void Seed(WhitelabelDb context)
    {
        **//This is the seed method I want to run when I update the database:**
        if(!context.CategorySet.Any(c => c.Name == "Root"))
        {
            Category mainCategory = new Category { Id = Guid.NewGuid(), Name = "Root", Parent = null };
            context.CategorySet.Add(mainCategory);
            context.SaveChanges();
        }

    }
   }
  }

And the InitialCreate.cs file for Whitelabel-Migrations using System.Data.Entity.Migrations;

  namespace DAL.DataContexts.WhitelabelMigrations

So, how can I get the seed method to run since I only can access the Category class from the Whitelabel configuration.cs file?

Any explanations, thoughts and constructive help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

Well actually, all I had to do was to add this line in the IdentityDb:

public virtual DbSet<Category> CategorySet { get; set; }

The I could access the Category class in the IdentityMigrations configuration.cs and create my Seed method working the way I wanted it to.

protected override void Seed(IdentityDb context)
{
    **//This is the seed method I want to run when I update the database:**
    if(!context.CategorySet.Any(c => c.Name == "Root"))
    {
        Category mainCategory = new Category { Id = Guid.NewGuid(), Name = "Root",   Parent = null };
        context.CategorySet.Add(mainCategory);
        context.SaveChanges();
    }

}
