On my development machine everything is working fine, however as soon as I publish it to the server I get

System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid

This is happening on

db.SubmitChanges();

I’ve check out https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=351358 and it still causes me errors

I also ran the Windows Update and everything is up to date on the server

    Okay I have resolved the issue.

    What appears to be the problem is that I have tables that have Id as Int and the Primary keys and also have GUID’s as a fields which is defined as Unique, and the Guid field is a key to another table and being used as a foreign key.

    When I set the Guid field as the primary key in the table the problem goes away.

    I’ve not created a test project to prove this, due to time constraints as we are going live next week
