I have used foreign keys many times before and set up these models just the same however I'm getting this error, the error also occurs when writing usertableID:
A foreign key value cannot be inserted because a corresponding primary key value does not exist. [ Foreign key constraint name = FK_dbo.Outreaches_dbo.OutreachNames_OutreachNamesID ]
Can anyone explain?
Code causing error:
foreach (var item in records)
{
List<string> foundEmails = EmailScraper.Main(item.domain);
string[] emails = foundEmails.ToArray();
var outreach = new Outreach {
domain = item.domain,
email1 = foundEmails.ElementAtOrDefault(0),
email2 = foundEmails.ElementAtOrDefault(1),
email3 = foundEmails.ElementAtOrDefault(2),
email4 = foundEmails.ElementAtOrDefault(3),
email5 = foundEmails.ElementAtOrDefault(4),
email6 = foundEmails.ElementAtOrDefault(5),
UserTableID = UserTableID,
OutreachNamesID = listNumber
};
db.OutreachLists.Add(outreach);
db.SaveChanges();
}
var outreachlist = new OutreachNames
{
ID = listNumber,
listName = model.listName,
listCount = count,
listSent = 0,
unread = 0,
replyRate = 0,
UserTableID = UserTableID,
};
db.OutreachNames.Add(outreachlist);

When saving your Outreach you are setting the FK OutreachNamesID to an ID of a record which doesn't exist yet. You need to create this record first or use Entity Framework to create OutreachNames as a child entity. Both entities need to be persisted to the db in one transaction.
You can create the child entity inside of the parent and persist them in one go like this:
var outreach = new Outreach
{
OutreachNames = new OutreachNames
{
...
}
}
db.OutreachLists.Add(outreach);
db.SaveChanges();

I get an error in the comments model in relations, I'm waiting for a practical answer, it seems like there is nothing difficult. I use the picture model easily in the article model. I thought of using this table in the auhor model, but I am stuck in relationships, what should I do?

This is the error:
Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_Comments_Authors_AuthorId' on
table 'Comments' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify

Are there any problems in other relationships? we can discuss
I'm using Entity Framework to populate a an SQL database table. My object 'WebcpdActivity' has a property 'OwnerIdDsc' that is an int. This gets populated (along with all the other properties) with a value shortly before being saved to the database:
WebcpdActivity.OwnerIdDsc = 0;
webContext.CPDActivities.Add(WebcpdActivity);
webContext.SaveChanges();
At the point of SaveChanges I get an error:
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'OwnerIdDsc', table 'CPDActivityRecord.dbo.CPDActivity'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The statement has been terminated.
When I step through the code at the point of SaveChanges the WebcpdActivity.OwnerIdDsc property is indeed '0' and not 'NULL'.

EDIT 3
I tried to keep the code to the areas I though relevant but it seems this issue may be a little more involved than originally thought. Basically; we have a Microsoft CRM installation that has a table we needed to replicate and only update the replicated table and extend with a further table. This table was replicated without any key constraints but with the data types and data constraints. So basically Table A (sb_cpdactivity) in Database A has been replicated as Table B (CPDActivity) in Database B and I have added Table C (CPDActivityExtended) to Database B.
The idea being we read from the original but NOT save to it. So when we save or create a new record we only do it to the NEW table (Table B,C Database B) Hence there is a way of converting between the original and the duplicate, if needs be).
Table B and C are standalone tables in their own database. Table C has a foreign key that is the primary key of Table B. The webContext only connects to this one database.
Hope this makes sense.
Okay, this took a while and it turns out this error was caused by the edmx file not actually having a mapping to the column that was referenced in the error. So when entity framework passed the object over to the database, that column (and several others) were not included and the database was unable to add a row where a non-nullable column was expecting a value.
I updated the edmx file so that ALL of the columns mapped correctly and everything is now fine.
I think you can't insert a NULL value because you did not declare your int? OwnerIdDsc variable as being NULLABLE.
Go back to the class properties and see exactly how you declared it.
I'm trying to figure out what is going on here. When I seed my database, my foreign key that it generates is always null. My model is simple:
public class PnlTarget
{
[Key]
[DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
public int PnlTargetId { get; set; }
public ReferenceAsset Underlyer { get; set; }
public decimal Target { get; set; }
public virtual PnlSettings PnlSettings { get; set; }
}
public class PnlSettings
{
[Key, DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.None)]
public int PnlSettingsId { get; set; }
public ColloquialType Type { get; set; }
public virtual PnlTarget SPTSX60 { get; set; }
public virtual PnlTarget SPTXLVPR { get; set; }
public virtual PnlTarget STBANKX { get; set; }
public virtual PnlTarget SX5E { get; set; }
public virtual PnlTarget RTY { get; set; }
public virtual PnlTarget SPX { get; set; }
[DataType(DataType.DateTime)]
public DateTime LastEdited { get; set; }
public string LastEditedBy { get; set; }
}
So it's a 1..0 to many relationship. When I seed it with something like this:
PnlSettings vanillaAccelerator = new PnlSettings
{
PnlSettingsId = 1,
Type = ColloquialType.VanillaAccelerator,
RTY = new PnlTarget {Underlyer = ReferenceAsset.RTY, Target = (decimal) 0.004},
SPX = new PnlTarget {Underlyer = ReferenceAsset.SPX, Target = (decimal) 0.004},
SPTSX60 = new PnlTarget { Underlyer = ReferenceAsset.SPTSX60, Target = (decimal)0.004},
SPTXLVPR = new PnlTarget { Underlyer = ReferenceAsset.SPTXLVPR, Target = (decimal)0.004},
STBANKX = new PnlTarget { Underlyer = ReferenceAsset.STBANKX, Target = (decimal)0.004},
SX5E = new PnlTarget { Underlyer = ReferenceAsset.SX5E, Target = (decimal)0.004},
LastEdited = DateTime.Now,
LastEditedBy = "SEED"
};
My foreign key property is always null as illustrated here. I've tried implementing a foreign key property manually using the [ForeignKey] annotation but unfortunately it still generates this null column. Is this intended?
Thanks!
I have an context with one to zero or one relationship in entity Framework.
but when i load my entity it will not load the related entity. It allways be null.
Here is my classes:
public class Timerow
{
[Key]
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required]
public int BestNo { get; set; }
[Required]
public int PosNo { get; set; }
[Required]
public int EmpNo { get; set; }
public virtual TimerowOvertime TimerowOvertimes { get; set; }
}
public class TimerowOvertime
{
[Key]
[ForeignKey("Timerow")]
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required]
public float Hours { get; set; }
public DateTime? Transfered { get; set; }
public bool Weekend { get; set; }
public bool ATF { get; set; }
[Required]
public virtual Timerow Timerow { get; set; }
}
But when i try to select Timerow and the related timerowOvertimes, timerowOvertimes allways be null.
i try this:
var timeRows = db.Timerows.ToList();
foreach (var timeRow in timeRows)
{
TimeSheet modelRow = new TimeSheet
{
Id = timeRow.Id,
Date = timeRow.Date,
BestNo = timeRow.BestNo,
PosNo = timeRow.PosNo,
Comment = timeRow.Comment,
Hours = timeRow.Hours,
Ready = timeRow.Ready,
SkillsNoId = timeRow.SkillsNoId
};
if(timeRow.TimerowOvertimes == null)
{
modelRow.ATF = false;
modelRow.Weekend = false;
modelRow.Overtime = 0;
}
else
{
modelRow.Overtime = timeRow.TimerowOvertimes.Hours;
modelRow.ATF = timeRow.TimerowOvertimes.ATF;
modelRow.Weekend = timeRow.TimerowOvertimes.Weekend;
}
}
Anyone has any idea about this?
You shouldn't have the Id property in TimerowOvertime annotated both as [Key] and [ForeignKey]. Currently it looks to bind the Timerow by using the primary key of TimerowOvertime entity. So you need to extend the TimerowOverTime entity to contain TimerowId property and annotate it with the [ForeignKey] attribute.
[ForeignKey("Timerow")]
public int TimerowId { get; set; }
An error occurred while saving entities that do not expose foreign key properties for their relationships. The EntityEntries property will return null because a single entity cannot be identified as the source of the exception.
I'm using EF Code first and I'm getting error above when I trying do this:
public ActionResult CreateTransaction(TransactionViewModel model)
{
try
{
if (model.MemberId != 0 && model.SubcategoryId != 0 & model.CategoryId != 0)
{
Transaction t = new Transaction();
t.Amount = model.Amount;
t.Comment = model.Comment;
t.Date = DateTime.Now;
t.TransactionSubcategory = db.Subcategories.Find(model.SubcategoryId);//and i have error in this line
//i tried also this code below but it's the same error
//db.Subcategories.Find(model.SubcategoryId).Transactions.Add(t);
db.Members.Find(model.MemberId).Transactions.Add(t);
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
else
{
return RedirectToAction("CreateTransaction") ;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
return RedirectToAction("CreateTransaction");
}
}
And there is my model
public class Subcategory
{
public Subcategory()
{
IsGlobal = false;
Transactions = new List<Transaction>();
}
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public TransactionType TypeOfTransaction { get; set; }
public Category OwnerCategory { get; set; }
public List<Transaction> Transactions { get; set; }
public bool IsGlobal { get; set; }
}
public class Transaction
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public Decimal Amount { get; set; }
public DateTime Date { get; set; }
public string Comment { get; set; }
public Subcategory TransactionSubcategory { get; set; }
public Member OwnerMember { get; set; }
}
I don't know why thats happen because in database in Transaction table i see there is column with FK.
If you need there is rest of the model
public class Budget
{
public Budget()
{
Members = new List<Member>();
}
public int Id { get; set; }
public string BudgetName { get; set; }
public string OwnerName { get; set; }
public DateTime CreatedTime { get; set; }
public List<Member> Members { get; set; }
}
public class Category
{
public Category()
{
IsGlobal = false;
}
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public List<Subcategory> Subcategories { get; set; }
public Budget OwnerBudget { get; set; }
public bool IsGlobal { get; set; }
}
public class Member
{
public Member()
{
Transactions = new List<Transaction>();
}
public Budget OwnerBudget { get; set; }
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public DateTime CreatedTime { get; set; }
public List<Transaction> Transactions { get; set; }
}
public enum TransactionType
{
Income,
Expenditure
}
Try adding
public int TransactionSubcategoryId { get; set; }
public int OwnerMemberId { get; set; }
In your Transaction class.
