EF Install-Package EntityFramework -Version 6.4.4 DB Migration issue

Ashwani Chaudhary

I Installed Entity framework from nuget console EntityFramework -Version 6.4.4 with .net web app targeting '.NETFramework,Version=v4.8' it installed then i run command Enable-migration and then add-migration AddTable which has two override method up and Down with no code inside and dint create DB after update-database command and it does not create any database .

Then again i Install-Package EntityFramework -Version 6.2.0 and followed the same steps and add-migration ADdtable command again create the up and down override method and write automatic sql query code for creating database table and create DB after update-database command

May i know whats the reason of not creating Database in 6.4.4 version and working fine in EntityFramework -Version 6.2.0

Accepted answer
Have you tried making some changes to your model and again firing the commands, it should have worked.
EF 6.4.4 should work.
when you install EF then don't specify the version, PMC will automatically install the latest stable means EF 6.4.

Any change, just to check whether the migration files are taking changes or not.
As you were getting empty Up() and Down() methods, so obviously DB will not create.
I just want to know changes reflect in Migrations or not.
Just change some property name like Name to Name1 etc and if Migration works you can revert the changes.
That is the actual work of Down method to revert the changes.
