Source code

Public IEnumerable<IForumThreadPost> GetForumPostByThreadAndPost()
{
    ScoutDataDataContext sd = new ScoutDataDataContext();
    long ThreadId = Convert.ToInt64(HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString["id"]);
    long PostId = Convert.ToInt64(HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString["postId"]);
    ///.Skip((pageIndex - 1)*pageSize).Take(pageSize) + int pageIndex, int pageSize
    return sd.ForumThreadPostDetails
          .AsEnumerable()
          .Where(f => f.ThreadId.Equals(ThreadId) && f.PostId.Equals(PostId))
          .Select(f => 
               new IForumThreadPost 
               { 
                  Id = f.Id, 
                  ThreadId = f.ThreadId, 
                  PostId = f.PostId, 
                  Title = f.Title, 
                  ThreadTitle = f.ThreadTitle, 
                  Content = f.Content, 
                  UserFullName = f.UserFullName, 
                  UserId = f.UserId 
              }).ToList(); // error here

}

This function has work before, so i don’t can figure out what the problem is.
Thanks for your help.

    Without seeing more of the code or database structure, it will be hard to come to a great solution. Seeing the ForumThreadPostDetails table and generated LinqToSql class would be ideal.

    Are the ThreadId and PostId both ‘BigInt’s in the database?

    Do the types match up between the properties within IForumThreadPost and ForumThreadPostDetails (and does the details class inherit from this interface, if it even is an interface)?

    Have any changes been made to the ForumThreadPostDetails table in the database (fields changing type, etc)?

    Why are you calling .AsEnumerable() on your table?
