Basically I've followed a tutorial and decided to delete the .mdf
file afterwards.
Now whenever I try to run the application I get the following error (the title of this thread). The code where I get the error is shown below (ASP.NET MVC 4):
OdeToFoodDB db = new OdeToFoodDB();
public ActionResult Index()
{
var model = db.Restaurants.ToList();
return View(model);
}
My connection string is the following:
<add name="DefaultConnection"
connectionString="Data Source=(LocalDb)\v11.0;Initial Catalog=OdeToFoodDb;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|\OdeToFoodDb.mdf"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
I've tried looking at the SQL Server Object Explorer but it looks the following:
Also, in Server Explorer I don't see any data connections.
And when I try to add a new connection in Server Explorer I don't see any databases named OdeToFoodDb
.
Sorry for this wide question but I'm new to Entity Framework and don't quite get what's wrong here.
