Unable to load the specified metadata resource

[suhman]

Hi,

I am getting an exception unable to load the specified metadata resource in the Web api project. I have edml file in another project (DAL) and the web api call the repository which exists in the DAL project.

I tried the below liks, but it didn't worked.

I tried updating the connection string as below and it didn't work either.

metadata=res://DataModel.csdl|res://DataModel.ssdl|res://DataModel.msl;provider=Devart.Data.Oracle;provider connection string=""User Id=scott;Password=tiger;Server=WAPI;Persist Security Info=True

to

metadata=res://SimpleDAL.dll/DataModel.csdl|res://SimpleDAL.dll/DataModel.ssdl|res://SimpleDAL.dll/DataModel.msl;provider=Devart.Data.Oracle;provider connection string=""User Id=scott;Password=tiger;Server=WAPI;Persist Security Info=True

The build action of the edml is set to

DevartEntityDeploy

Copy to Output Directory

Do not copy

Custom Tool

DevartEfGenerator

Version

5.0.993.0

Also I noticed that when I view the dll in object browser, I don't see any csdl/ssdl or msl file.

metadata=res://SimpleDAL/DataModel.csdl|res://SimpleDAL/DataModel.ssdl|res://SimpleDAL/DataModel.msl;provider=Devart.Data.Oracle;provider connection string=""User Id=scott;Password=tiger;Server=WAPI;Persist Security Info=True
