I got the following error while executing the linq query "LINQ to Entities does not recognize and this method cannot be translated into a store expression."
LINQ Query:
var queryresult = (from x in db.Specifications
where x.Brand.Name.Contains(brand)
select
new specsModel { specificationid = x.SpecificationId, Title = x.Title,
Picture = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["BlogUrl"] + db.Pictures.Where(p =>
p.SetActive == true && p.SpecificationId == x.SpecificationId).ToList().
FirstOrDefault().Path }).ToList();
Solution:
var stringURL = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["BlogUrl"];
I assigned the value to the string variable and passed in to the linq query and executed. It works fine.
var queryresult = (from x in db.Specifications
where x.Brand.Name.Contains(brand)
select
new specsModel { specificationid = x.SpecificationId, Title = x.Title,
Picture = stringURL + db.Pictures.Where(p =>
p.SetActive == true && p.SpecificationId == x.SpecificationId).ToList().
FirstOrDefault().Path }).ToList();
