The instance of entity type 'Item' cannot be tracked because another instance with the same key value for {'Id'} is already being tracked

Question

I am aware that such question has already been asked, but solution did not help me.

[Fact]
public async Task UpdateAsync()
{
    string newTitle = \"newTitle1\";         


        

Answer 1

Had the same problem with EF core 2.2. I never experianced this with other applications.

Ended up rewriting all my update functions somehow like this:

public bool Update(Entity entity)
{
    try
    {   
       var entry = _context.Entries.First(e=>e.Id == entity.Id);
       _context.Entry(entry).CurrentValues.SetValues(entity);
       _context.SaveChanges();
       return true;
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
         // handle correct exception
         // log error
         return false;
    }
}
