EF6 MySQL StrongTypingException When Column is not PK

Question

We are using MySql and Entity FrameWork with VS 2013 those are the tools installed:

• MySql Server 5.7.8
• MySql WorkBench 6.3.
• MySql for Visual Stud

Answer 1

I have pinpointed that this error appears only to connections with 5.7.8 mysql server which is in release candidate state. With the latest stable version 5.6.25 the entity framework works correctly.
