I am trying to do a School Management System for practising. But I’m getting exception that i didnt know how to resolve.

Exception That i’m getting;

I tried to read some other stackoverflow threads but that didnt help me to resolve my problem.

>Solution :

The error is pretty clear:

Unable to resolve service for type ‘SchoolManagementApp.Dal.AppDbContext’ while attempting to activate ‘SchoolManagementApp.Dal.UnitOfWorks.UnitOfWork’

Your DbContext is not registered in the DI. Check out the DbContext Lifetime, Configuration, and Initialization article. Usually you setup you have in OnConfiguring on the injection level and provide ctor accepting DbContextOptions<AppDbContext>. Something along these lines:

public class AppDbContext : DbContext
{
    public AppDbContext(DbContextOptions<AppDbContext> options) : base(options)
    {
    }

    // not needed
    // protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder) {}
}

And registration:

builder.Services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(
        options => options.UseSqlServer("Data Source=DESKTOP-H2SJGIR;Initial Catalog=DbSchoolManagement;Integrated Security=True")); // better would be reading from config

Also check out Dependency injection in ASP.NET Core article.
