Scaffolding controller doesn’t work with visual studio 2013 update 3 and 4

by

I had the same issue today.

I had added some custom configuration for one of my Model classes to add a relationship using the fluent API. This was specified in my dbContext class in the OnModelCreating override using the following:

modelBuilder.Configurations.Add(new OrderConfiguration());

Commenting out the above line allowed the Controller scaffolding to run as expected.

VS 2013 update 2 had a problem with this and the scaffolding came up with an unhelpful error with no further information. In installed Update 3 and it gave just enough detail to track down the underlying issue.
