System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DbUpdateException error - sql-server-2008

I have a simple MVC 5 test solution that is connected to a SQL server 2008 on the intranet here. I have followed this tutorial so far:
http://www.asp.net/mvc/overview/getting-started/database-first-development/generating-views
I can open the view, and it shows the listing but when I try to create a new one I get the following error:
{"Unable to update the EntitySet 'Movies' because it has a
DefiningQuery and no <InsertFunction> element exists in the
<ModificationFunctionMapping> element to support the current
operation."}
I used the Database first approach so I have no idea what has gone wrong. I understand that somehow he can't perform an Update. Is this something I need to fix inside the project or has it to do something with SQl server?
EDIT: here is the exception details
System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DbUpdateException was unhandled by user code

Issues with UWP Device Connecting to MySQL

I'm having issues connecting a UWP device to MySQL after the latest Windows 10 update.
After doing research, it looks like there's no MySQL connector available that works with the new Windows update.
Everything worked fine before the update, but now I'm receiving this error:

Entity Framework execute RawSql on MySQL Database

I am using EntityFramework to connect to a MySql server.
I have a method which inserts many objects in the database. For this, i am generating an SQL script, which i execute it using dbContext.Database.ExecuteSqlCommand(script) method.
This workflow works ok when the EntityFramework was connected to MS SQL Server.
Now, after i moved it to MySql, it throws error when executing the script.
Incorrect syntax near '`'.
Important
The script had been generated to match MySql syntax. If i run that script in MySQL Workbench, the query is executed successfully.
I think that EntityFramework is trying to parse the script i am sending, but in the MS SQL language.

The Entity Framework is already working with MySql. The error is only triggered when using dbContext.Database.ExecuteSqlCommand(script)

From your error:
Method 'System.Object CompareObjectEqual(System.Object, System.Object, Boolean)' has no supported translation to SQL
This means that you are doing an object comparison that SQL does not know how to perform.
The places I see that you are doing this comparison are:
Where pgmAccess.OperatorID = RData.UserName
On menuDef.ProgramName Equals pgmAccess.Program
You need to check what the datatypes of those properties are. Remember that SQL only knows how to compare common datatypes, like strings, ints, doubles, etc. It does not know how to compare datatypes that you create.
I fixed the issue RData.Username had to have .tostring now it works. Thanks #Yuriy Galanter

MVC Application not accessing SQL Server database

I am getting this error in my recently deployed MVC 4 web application, whenever I click a link that requires database access:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
When I run the mvc app locally, through visual studio, connecting to these remote databases, I do not get this error, and the credentials are correct because when I "Connect to database" it logs in and retrieves all the entities as normal. I published the site to the server's FTP, as the host does not have a webdeploy service.
Can anyone explain why my deployed app would have issues with the database and not my local version?
UPDATE
Before I exposed this NullReferenceException, it was a ReflectionTypeLoadException. Don't know if that means anything, but here:

Update
Ok I just attempted to deploy a brand new MVC app from Visual Studio, and that gave me no errors when trying to access models (I made a simple Students model and created a new "Student" in the database, something that would not work in my actual MVC app. Any ideas?
The table in the database might not exist. I am facing the same problem now, the easiest way is to delete the whole DB and let EF recreate everything. If you already have some sensitive data, then it is trickier. And you might try these too:
Database.SetInitializer(new DropCreateDatabaseIfModelChanges<YourDbContext>());
// or you can use DropCreateDatabaseAlways<>
From here: EF4 Code First create new table
Or you can check this one: Entity Framework 4.1 Code First not creating tables

I am working with MySQL and the .Net EntityFramework 4 using the Code First approach. The mysql connector version is 6.4.3.
When I run the project for the first time my initializer attempts to "DropCreateDatabaseAlways". The database is created as well as all the tables. Then the following exception is thrown.

I'm not sure what this "ModelHash" column is as it does not exist in my models.
Thanks,
AFrieze
I have identified the location of this ModelHash column, it is in the EdmMetadata table that is used to track changes. The error I am experiencing can be eliminated by adding the following modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove(); Is there a way to use EdmMetadata with MySQL then?
The IncludeMetadataConvention does nothing more than it maps the EdmMetadata entity.
void IConfigurationConvention.Apply(ModelConfiguration modelConfiguration)
{
modelConfiguration.Entity(typeof(EdmMetadata), false).ToTable("EdmMetadata");
}
AFAI see the framework just checks in other places if this class is mapped or not and acts accordingly.
As a workaround you could try to map the EdmMetadata entity in your mapping (instead of using this convention for that, so keep the convention removed), where you could explicitly map the ModelHash property with an appropriate size or type (text). On "how to map the field length or type of a field" you can find info here: How do I specify that a property should generate a TEXT column rather than an nvarchar(4000) According to the answers there this should change the type of the column to text:
modelBuilder.Entity<EdmMetadata>()
.Property(e => e.ModelHash)
.HasColumnType("text");
Can someone try this approach?
