Multiple object sets per type are not supported. The object sets 'ApplicationUsers' and 'Users' can both contain instances of type ApplicationUser

asp.net, asp.net-mvc-4, entity-framework

Solution

I ended up renaming ApplicationUser to User, rescaffolding and everything magically started working.

Looks like the templates are a bit out of wack.

Problem

I am stuck at an odd issue. I am learning MVC 5 and almost everything is created by the built-in template. I only added a class History ``` public class History { [Key] public DateTime Date { get; set; } public virtual ApplicationUser User { get; set; } public string ItemName { get; set; } } ``` And inside the built-in ApplicationUser: ``` public class ApplicationUser : IdentityUser { public async Task<ClaimsIdentity> GenerateUserIdentityAsync(UserManager<ApplicationUser> manager) { // Note the authenticationType must match the one defined in CookieAuthenticationOptions.AuthenticationType var userIdentity = await manager.CreateIdentityAsync(this, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie); // Add custom user claims here return userIdentity; } public virtual ICollection<History> Histories { get; set; } } ``` Here is the error message: ``` Multiple object sets per type are not supported. The object sets 'ApplicationUsers' and 'Users' can both contain instances of type 'MyOnlineShopping.Models.ApplicationUser'. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
