Any() method throws an exception when we connect to MySql but it is working fine when we connect to SqlServer

[Shravan Sangishetti]

Calling Any() method on a table to check for the existence of records throws an exception when we connect to MySql but it is working fine when we connect to SqlServer


I am using the following code

public IActionResult GetCustomers()
{
DbContext db = new DbContext();
if(db.Customers.Any())//here throws an exception when we connect to mysql db
{
//my code
}
return view();
}

My Exception was:

Exception has occurred: CLR/System.InvalidOperationException
An exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.dll but was not handled in user code: 'No coercion operator is defined between types 'System.Int16' and 'System.Boolean'.'
