Im using the EF4.1 with code first to create a database.

I have my model in mvc3 that looks like this

    public class BusinessContactDetailsModel
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }

        [Display(Name = "Contact Date")]
        public DateTime ContactDate { get; set; }

        [Range(1, 5)]
        [Display(Name = "Outcome Rating")]
        public int OutcomeRating { get; set; }

        [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)]
        public string Comment { get; set; }


        public int BusinessId { get; set; }

        [Display(Name = "Method of Contact")]
        public int FormOfContactId { get; set; }

        [Display(Name = "Follow up Date")]
        public DateTime FollowUpDate { get; set; }

    }

Which fails when I try to run the application during the build process. I know its the FollowUpProperty that is causing the problem as its a new property I have just added and whats strange is if I change the property from a DateTime to an Int it works ok.

Has anyone else had this kind of problem?

My stack trace looks like

  • It turns out it was because the DateTime was not nullable. I changed it to allow null dates and it works fine now. Commented Jun 5, 2011 at 4:04

In my case a TimeSpan was initialized to 30 hours, which caused an exception when casted to t-sql! Dumb EF 5.0 RTM!
