I have an MVC 4 project using EF 5 Code First. I am trying to install MiniProfile at no avail.

I pulled MiniProfiler 2.0.1 and MiniProfiler.EF 2.0.2 from NuGet, added the following on the Global.asax.cs:

protected void Application_Start()
{
    MiniProfilerEF.Initialize(); 
}

Immediately upon run, I get this error:

The provider did not return a DbSpatialServices instance.

Line 58:   if (user != null)
Line 59:   {
Line 60:>>>    if (user.Places != null)
Line 61:       {
Line 62:            var place= user.Places .OrderByDescending(x => x.CreationTime).FirstOrDefault();

I have a couple of DbGeography types in my Places POCO.

public class Places 
{
    public Guid PlacesId { get; set; }
    ...
    public DbGeography Location { get; set; }
    public DbGeography Area { get; set; }
    ...
}

I have tried searching for that error but it does not show up in google anywhere.

    This looks like a bug in MiniProfiler, it should be reported at: http://community.miniprofiler.com

    In particular profiling EF is very tricky, a lot of the work is done by wrapping every “provider” it uses. It seems that EFProfiledDbProviderFactory needs some special logic to locate, intercept and wrap the spatial services.
