InnerException : Table 'xxx.aspnetusers' doesn't exist - mysql

Question

I have an ASP.NET MVC 4 Web API project which uses Entity Framework 6.1.1 and MySQL 6.9.5.0. When I call /api/Account/Register using DHC, the code breaks at
IdentityResult result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user, model.Password);
in the AccountController and I get an InnerException which says
Table 'xxx.aspnetusers' doesn't exist
Here are pieces of my web.config

Answer 1

I had exactly the same problem .
I followed the following tutorial and it worked
How to set up application using ASP.NET Identity with MySQL Provider
It is important that you follow all the steps of the tutorial,even the migration setup, otherwise it gives the same error.

Answer 2

The exception clearly states that aspnetusers is missing from your database. However, on more findings, I think you would like to go through this answer from asp.net forum.

For Role,Membership Provider, asp.net [entire asp.net stack/webapi included] with mysql, you need to have that providers specific to mysql in place. For this, you can refer to
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/117157/Setting-up-MySql-Membership-with-Visual-Studio
Let me know, if this solves your problem.

Answer 3

I tried following the instructions on
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/117157/Setting-up-MySql-Membership-with-Visual-Studio.
When I launch the security tab in ASP Website administration tool, I get an error saying
The pre-application start initialization method Start on type WebMatrix.WebData.PreApplicationStartCode threw an exception with the following error message: Could not load file or assembly 'MySql.Data, Version=6.9.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040) (C:\Users\Jaseem Abbas\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\MySQLSample1\MySQLSample1\web.config line 33).
My line 33 in web config starts as
