Automatic migration was not applied because it would result in data loss.

I’ve just started using EntityFramework.Migrations and came accross this error:

No pending explicit migrations.
Applying automatic migration: 201205101614472_AutomaticMigration.

Automatic migration was not applied because it would result in data loss.

It’s because my migrations would’ve nuked some of my data. I’m okay with that though, you just need to throw on the -Force tag to get it to complete the migration:

Update-Database -Verbose -Force
