LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'System.String ToString()' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression

Question

I\'m migrating some stuff from one mysql server to a sql server but i can\'t figure out how to make this code work:

using (var context = new Context())
{
            


        

Answer 1

Had a similar problem. Solved it by calling ToList() on the entity collection and querying the list. If the collection is small this is an option.

IQueryable pages = context.pages.ToList().Where(p=>p.serial == item.Key.ToString())

Hope this helps.
