linqpad 7 - Cannot load assembly

abasourdix

Hello,
I migrated a .NET 5 web app to .net 6
Then I try to create a connection with linqpad 7 to my new path and I get the following error : Cannot load assembly - type load exception

Actually, my .NET6 app references some libraries like rotativacore or WebEssentials.AspNetCore.PWA , which have dependencies with old framework.
But it should not be a problem, right ?
My application works like a charm, either in VS 2022 and the server. But not in linqpad

Any idea ?

Thanks,

Olivier Chicaud

I am getting similar error with LinqPad 7, see attached. Tried the beta with same error

If you manually enter the full name of the typed DbContext (such as ContosoUniversity.Data.SchoolContext) into the box provided, does it work?

Yes, it works when I manually enter the DbContext.

Looks like there's been a change in the format of the .runtimeconfig.json file that's generated for ASP.NET applications.

Try the 7.2.6 beta - it should resolve the problem.

I can confirm it is now working in 7.2.6 beta. Appreciate it.
