I have an assembly with an EF 5.0 (target framework 4.0) migrations in it.
When I open the package management console and type 'update-database' I get an BadImageException. (note: I have one c++ native lib in the solution).
I have read several post regarding this and I tried:
- All projects have x64 target platform
- Solution platform is x64, all projects have x64 as configuration
- No warnings during build
But...when I added a console app, using DBMigrator class the migration works fine!
What happens ?
(update)
It seems that when using the Package Management Console and use 'update-database', it uses an .exe in the package root of EF / tools, called 'migrate.exe'. This .exe is 32bit and is not able to load 64 bit assemblies! Check http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/jj618307.aspx)
Using VS2013, Update 1.
The exception detail:
PM> update-database
Specify the '-Verbose' flag to view the SQL statements being applied to the target database.
