There is already an open DataReader associated with this Command which must be closed first

Question

I have this query and I get the error in this function:

var accounts = from account in context.Accounts
               from guranteer in account.Gurantors
           


        

Answer 1

For those finding this via Google;
I was getting this error because, as suggested by the error, I failed to close a SqlDataReader prior to creating another on the same SqlCommand, mistakenly assuming that it would be garbage collected when leaving the method it was created in.

I solved the issue by calling sqlDataReader.Close(); before creating the second reader.
