An Error has occured during the migrations System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. (Para-CodePudding

I have the following piece of code

using MyService.Data;
using MyService.Helpers;
using MyService.Interfaces;
using MyService.Services;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace MyService.Extensions
{
  public  static class ApplicationServiceExtentions
  {
    public static IServiceCollection AddApplicationServices(this 
    IServiceCollection services, IConfiguration config)
    {
        
        services.AddAutoMapper(typeof(AutoMapperProfiles).Assembly);
        services.AddDbContext<DataContext>(options =>
        {

           options.UseMySQL(config.GetConnectionString("server=localhost;database= mydb;user=myuser;password=mypassw"));
        });

        return services;
    }
}
}

In my Program.cs, I have the following

using System;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
    using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
    using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;
    using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
    using MyService.Data;
    using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;
    using MyService.Entities;
    using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity;

    namespace MyService
    {
        public class Program
        {
            public async static Task Main(string[] args)
            {
                
                //CreateHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
                var host = CreateHostBuilder(args).Build();
                using var scope = host.Services.CreateScope();
                var services = scope.ServiceProvider;

                try
                {
                    var context = services.GetRequiredService<DataContext>();
                    var userManager = services.GetRequiredService<UserManager<AppUser>>();
                    var roleManager = services.GetRequiredService<RoleManager<AppRole>>();
                    await context.Database.MigrateAsync();
                    await Utilities.UserRoleHandlerUtilitity.UserHandler(userManager, roleManager);
                }
                catch(Exception ex)
                {
                    var logger = services.GetRequiredService<ILogger<Program>>();
                    logger.LogError(ex, "An Error has occured during the migrations");
                }

                await host.RunAsync();

            }

            public static IHostBuilder CreateHostBuilder(string[] args) =>
                Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
                    .ConfigureWebHostDefaults(webBuilder =>
                    {
                        webBuilder.UseStartup<Startup>();
                    });
        }
    }

I did a publish on a CentOs7. When I am running my application using the command:

/usr/share/dotnet/dotnet /var/netcore/MyService.dll

I have the following error:

[XXXXXX@ip-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx ~]$ /usr/share/dotnet/dotnet /var/netcore/MyService.dll
   fail: MyService.Program[0]

I do not understand why is the value of my connection string null when I hardcoded directly it in the application.

What could be the issue?

CodePudding user response：

The following line is incorrect:

options.UseMySQL(config.GetConnectionString("server=localhost;database= mydb;user=myuser;password=mypassw"));

Currently it is looking in the config for a connection string with the KEY "server=l...".

If you are hardcoding, remove the config.GetConnectionString method and just pass in the string to UseMySQL:

options.UseMySQL("server=localhost;database= mydb;user=myuser;password=mypassw");

Or, if doing in a more standard way, add the connection string to the configuration file with a key value pair and pass the key value eg:

options.UseMySQL(config.GetConnectionString("MyDatabase"));
