1. Hi Mukesh, thank you so much for this great work ! do you think it is a good idea to add 2 others projects to the template : an “integration test” project and a “unit test” project …. with samples to show how the tests should be approaches with architecture… ?

   Again, I really like your good job ! Thanks you !

2. I would like to let you know that I have cloned your source code from Github and build it in my development environment it is working fine, but when I try to publish this and host it to iis I am getting server error 500.
   I am getting issues on //Read Configuration from appSettings
   var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
   .AddJsonFile(“appsettings.json”)
   .Build();
   Json Parsing issue.
   I have only made changes in the connection string and nothing else.

4. This is awesome! I plan to play around with it this week. I am curious with everyone moving to Angular, React, or Vue; why did you chose MVC for the front end? I need to make this decision for a project and am curious on your input.

   1. Hi. Nothing very specific actually. People build client applications using React etc. But the project that I included is not a client application. It’s a complete application with direct access to the app layer without consuming the API. If I were to go for a client application, I would have chosen Angular or Blazor.

      Regards.

7. Hi Mukesh, could you please help me connect this template with oracle database?

   1. I was able to get it to work with PostgreSQL, For Oracle it will be the same process but you’ll need to know which Oracle Nuget EF packages to install, steps:
      1. After installation, remove Nuget packages for Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer for Web and Infrastructure Projects
      2. Add your equivalent Oracle EF Provider, for Postgresql it is Npgsql.EntityFrameworkCore.PostgreSQL and you must install it in the 2 projects abvove
      3. Delete all the migrations
      4. Change your connectionString to your specific DB in appSettings.json (for both webapi and web projects)
      5. Run migrations
      add-migration initial2 -context ApplicationDbContext
      add-migration initialIdentity2 -context IdentityContext
      6. Apply migrations
      update-database -context IdentityContext
      update-database -context ApplicationDbContext
      7. You’re good to go

8. Hi Mukesh, Thank you so much for an amazing work!
   I’ve one question, how can we use ApplicationUser inside Domain project?
   For i.e
   public class Feedback
   {
   public int Id { get; set; }
   public string Note { get; set; }
   public string UserId { get; set; }
   public DateTime Created { get; set; }
   [JsonIgnore]
   public virtual ApplicationUser User { get; set; }
   }
   Here UserId is foreign key and using User as navigation property.
   But

10. I would like to ask about one issue. I want to make a one to many relationship with the application user (aspnet user) for which I have a table named Office unit. So the scenario is , one office unit can have many users. How can I implement this relationship in the architecture if I implement a new Entity named OfficeUnit inside Core->Domain. Or I am getting this wrong? I am just learning it so I may be confused.
    Thanks.

12. Truly Excellent Work Mukesh, well done!
    I was able to use it with PostgreSQL (I have detailed the steps in a reply to a comment below)
    but I have an issue, certain function Admin Settings>>Users gives the following erroe:

    An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request.
    NpgsqlOperationInProgressException: A command is already in progress: SELECT r.”Id”, r.”ConcurrencyStamp”, r.”Name”, r.”NormalizedName”
    FROM “Identity”.”Roles” AS r
    WHERE r.”Name” IN (‘Admin’, ‘Moderator’, ‘Basic’, ‘SuperAdmin’)

    Admin Settings>>Roles works fine

    From my research there may be a missing “await” and Npgsql is very strict that explains why the error not happening in SQLServer.

    Any thoughts on this Mukesh on how to make it work?
