Hi there,

First let me preface this that I using Telerik Reporting Q2 2013 Internal Build v7.1.13.726.
When I try to instantiate run my report against an object data source that is tied to a repository pattern that is backed by code-first entity framework (which is the closest I've come to getting this to work) I receive this error. Any ideas where I should look to solve this error.
My app.config in the reporting project has the correct connection string defined for the DbContext so I'm a little confused.

Hi Craig,

Please take a look at the following blog article about the new DbContext support: Try out new Entity Framework Support in Telerik Reporting and Earn Rewards, and the EntityDataSource Wizard help article. At step 1 in the help article using code-first approach you need to set the same connection string as the one used to create the models.

I hope this helps.

Have you tried the new visualization options in Telerik Reporting Q2 2013? You can get them from your account.
