System.InvalidOperationException: The LINQ expression 'DbSet<Upload>

Hello,
I am unable to upload files when running Kestrel and SQL Server 2019. I am using the latest version of PU from the website.

I’m running PU as a domain service account with sysadmin access on the SQL Server. It connects to SQL Server just nicely.

"Plugins": [
    "SQL"
  ],
  "Data": {
    "RepositoryPath": "C:\\UA\\Repository",
    "ConnectionString": "Server=localhost;Database=pu;Integrated Security=true;TrustServerCertificate=True;",

This is the code that fails (So far, I can’t get any comboination of New-UDUpload to work). I tried with a couple small CSV files.

New-UDUpload -Text "Upload2" -Id "u2" -OnUpload {
        Show-UDToast $Body -Duration 8000
    }

And here is what’s showing in the log after a successful startup.

2022-07-29 01:56:02.717 -10:00 [ERR] An unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request.

Also my browser shows that the upload fails with a 500 on this link: http://localhost:5000/api/internal/component/element/u2

We have a problem with that LINQ query. I’ve opened an issue here: New-UDUpload fails when using SQL persistence · Issue #1428 · ironmansoftware/issues · GitHub

Just as a technical note on why this happened: When we implemented SQL support for PSU we had a bunch of existing LINQ queries that also work with our existing LiteDB database. We spent a lot of time tracking down and testing the queries throughout the product to ensure they work in both databases.

This is one that snuck through the cracks.

Thank you! Oops, should I file issues there? Interesting about the SQL migration. Was it super time consuming?

Feel free! I don’t mind creating them. Whatever is easier for you.

And it was super time consuming! Took longer than planned for sure.
