'Fragment' does not have an implementation exception when trying to add migration with EF Core 7

Question

When I'm trying to add a migration using EF Core (7.0.0-rc.1.22426.7) I'm greeted with the following error in the console:

System.TypeLoadException: Method 'Fragment' in type 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design.Internal.CSharpHelper' from assembly 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design, Version=6.0.8.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60' does not have an implementation.

Has anyone encountered this before and know what to do about it? Migrations worked up until today and I don't think I've been adding very exotic things to my code base. Any pointers in the right direction are helpful since Google didn't really clarify anything yet...

Answer 1

Installing Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design solved the problem for me

Answer 2

First time I tried I received that message also. There was another warning "The Entity Framework tools version '6.0.13' is older than that of the runtime '7.0.2'. Update the tools for the latest features and bug fixes."

So I updated the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools to 7.0.2 to be the same as Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer and that fixed it
