Hello.

I started learining Databases and Entity Framework.

Created a solution. Installed from NuGet packeges Entity Framework lastest version.
Then I had to install EFTools6.1.2ForVS2012.msi in order to make a ado entity data model file.

Connecting to the SQL server and the database was no problem
After the wizard setup finished in the generated context file i was getting:
ErrorGeneratingOutput.

When you have a problem like this, remember that a lot of other people will probably have it also:

Error in generating the output can be caused by many other factors too. Dependancy libraries and assemblies are also a reason. What do you think Bill?

The problem was that Visual Studio was installed on non-default location, therefore Can't find the entity framework tools.

I have never seen any option in which Visual Studio would let me decide where to install it.

Why don't you try out Visual Studio 2013? It is better than that version.

My PC is not that powerful to start VS 2013. Very Laggy.

How does that tell that the Entity Framework is not working?
