I installed dotnet ef tool in order to generate migrations for a dotnet core project am working on using the command. dotnet tool install -g dotnet-ef. The installation was successfull. In order to us dotnet ef i have installed the nuget packages below

  1. Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer
  2. Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore
  3. Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity.EntityFrameworkCore
  4. Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools

When trying to generate migrations using the command dotnet ef migrations add IdentityandCategory i get the output below.

It was not possible to find any compatible framework version
The framework 'Microsoft.NETCore.App', version '3.1.1' was not found.
  - The following frameworks were found:
      2.1.14 at [/usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App]
      2.2.8 at [/usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App]
      3.1.0 at [/usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App]

You can resolve the problem by installing the specified framework and/or SDK.

The specified framework can be found at:
  - https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?framework=Microsoft.NETCore.App&framework_version=3.1.1&arch=x64&rid=ubuntu.19.10-x64

I reinstall dotnet 3.1.1 but this trouble continues. dotnet info seem to detect the version when i run donet --info

I ran into this issue today on Azure Pipelines. The easiest way to fix it is to explicitly install dotnet-ef by specifying the exact version you need.

dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef --version 3.1.0

I believe that the .NET Core Runtime version and the dotnet-ef version have to be in sync. Since there was a security patch released recently that bumped .NET Core Runtime up to 3.1.1, there is a mismatch and that is why it is complaining.

That said, it is probably wise to just update everything to 3.1.1 when time permits.
