Question

I am attempting to experiment with linq to sql using this site as a guide.

When running a test I keep getting an error parsing the mapping file I created. The error:

System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaException : Database node not found. Is the mapping namespace (http://schemas.microsoft.com/linqtosql/mapping/2007) correctly specified?

Here is the mapping file:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>     <Database Name='Test' xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/linqtosql/mapping/2007'>       <Table Name='dbo.Categories' Member='Category'>         <Type Name='Category'>           <Column Name='ID' Member='ID' Storage='id' DbType='Char(32) NOT NULL' CanBeNull='false' IsPrimaryKey='true' />           <Column Name='ParentID' Member='ParentID' Storage='parentID' DbType='Char(32)' />           <Column Name='Name' Member='Name' Storage='name' DbType='VarChar(50) NOT NULL' CanBeNull='false' />         </Type>       </Table>     </Database> 

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

Figured it out!

the line:

<Table Name='dbo.Categories' Member='Category'> 

Needed changed to:

<Table Name='dbo.Categories' Member='Categories'> 

and now its working.
