Hi,
 we are in the final stages of testing and plan to release the EF Core 5 provider by end of this month or first week of January. We may release a beta version before that if we find it to be at stable state. It will be released through NuGet and will be notified in the forum here.

Thanks
Vishwa

When updating the following table with the statement in .NET 5 application

TEMPLATES1 t = db.TEMPLATES1.FirstOrDefault(i=>i.ID > 0);
t.ID = t.ID;
db.TEMPLATES1.Update(t);
db.SaveChanges();

(Looks like .NET 5 provider is having problems with underscores in the field name )

I get this error message,

Hi Peter,
We created table definition in our DB2 LUW server, and then generated model via Scaffolding regular command.
After this we tried to update the table and it worked for us.
Could you please share the sample app to reproduce the issue in our environment. For quick resolution you may contact IBM Support Team.

Thanks,

Just found out this error occurs only when the update is wrapped in a transaction
I am including the Visual Studio project.

try

var db = new DbPrintContext();
IDbContextTransaction dbContextTransaction = await db.Database.BeginTransactionAsync();

TEMPLATES1 t = db.TEMPLATES1.FirstOrDefault(i=>i.ID > 0);
t.ID = t.ID;
db.TEMPLATES1.Update(t);
await db.SaveChangesAsync();

await dbContextTransaction.CommitAsync();

I don't understand why you guys just don't open the Case?  You know what is wrong you verified it, you have the error message, all the code, and the steps to reproduce it and you know your environment. So if I don't open a case this bug will not get fixed and some other developer will have to deal with this?
I don't get it! Since this is affecting production you would think IBM would want this fixed as soon as possible.

Hi Peter,
 agree with you. As soon as we noticed the issue, we prioritize it and fix it. It will be available in the next version update. If you are blocked by this and you need a special build sooner than the next version, you may want to open a case with IBM.

Thanks

Hi,
 we are in the final stages of testing and plan to release the EF Core 5 provider by end of this month or first week of January. We may release a beta version before that if we find it to be at stable state. It will be released through NuGet and will be notified in the forum here.

Thanks
Vishwa

Thank You!
I appreciate your response.
I can live with it the way it is for now because it works without transactions so I can create a workaround for the time being.

Hi Peter,
 agree with you. As soon as we noticed the issue, we prioritize it and fix it. It will be available in the next version update. If you are blocked by this and you need a special build sooner than the next version, you may want to open a case with IBM.

Thanks
Vishwa

I don't understand why you guys just don't open the Case?  You know what is wrong you verified it, you have the error message, all the code, and the steps to reproduce it and you know your environment. So if I don't open a case this bug will not get fixed and some other developer will have to deal with this?
I don't get it! Since this is affecting production you would think IBM would want this fixed as soon as possible.

Thanks Peter, we are able to reproduce the issue.
There is change in MS EF .NET 5, which is causing this issue. Please contact IBM Support Team to open Case.

Just found out this error occurs only when the update is wrapped in a transaction
I am including the Visual Studio project.

try
{
var db = new DbPrintContext();
IDbContextTransaction dbContextTransaction = await db.Database.BeginTransactionAsync();

TEMPLATES1 t = db.TEMPLATES1.FirstOrDefault(i=>i.ID > 0);
t.ID = t.ID;
db.TEMPLATES1.Update(t);
await db.SaveChangesAsync();

await dbContextTransaction.CommitAsync();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e);
throw;
}

Hi Peter,
We created table definition in our DB2 LUW server, and then generated model via Scaffolding regular command.
After this we tried to update the table and it worked for us.
Could you please share the sample app to reproduce the issue in our environment. For quick resolution you may contact IBM Support Team.

Thanks,
Archana

When updating the following table with the statement in .NET 5 application

TEMPLATES1 t = db.TEMPLATES1.FirstOrDefault(i=>i.ID > 0);
t.ID = t.ID;
db.TEMPLATES1.Update(t);
db.SaveChanges();

(Looks like .NET 5 provider is having problems with underscores in the field name )

I get this error message,

IBM.Data.Db2.DB2Exception (0x80004005): ERROR [428HV] [IBM][DB2/AIX64] SQL20521N Error occurred processing a conditional compilation directive near "_". Reason code="7".
