An entity object cannot be referenced by multiple instances of IEntityChangeTracker

asp.net c# caching entity-framework

Question

I use EF as ORM.

I dispose the objectContext on every request.

I save the entities in a cache layer, as my service gets lots of traffic.

I got sometimes get the error objectContext already disposed for some entities that I got from the cache.

I have added this code to elements that were retrived from the cache

if (maMDBEntities.Entry(group).State == EntityState.Detached)
{
    maMDBEntities.Groups.Attach(group);
}

but now I sometimes get this error:

An entity object cannot be referenced by multiple instances of IEntityChangeTracker.

Was using Attach() an incorrect solution from the first place?

Accepted Answer

As we told you in your other question (will EF::attach(entity) will solve objectContext is already desposed?), you have to detach the Entities before attaching it to another Context!

If maMDBEntities is a new Context (not the one, which loaded the data), the EntityState is not "attached" from this Contexts point-of-view. So your check is not sufficient.

This maMDBEntities.Entry(group).State == EntityState.Detached will always be true for an Context, which did not load the Entity.

"template", or something that it references, has already been added to courseEntities ...or... another context. I don't see anything in the code you show it would do that, but it is certainly happening. Perhaps it's happening in some of the code that you've trimmed. Look at the EntityState property of "template" in the debugger, and look at the Ent...

Entity Framework for ADO.Net Multiple instances of IEntityChangeTracker cannot refer to the same entity object.

I've seen this before, you may have to convert the Reference field to an EntityKey before saving and then Load it after its saved. Try this code instead:...public Contact CreateContact(Contact contact){ contact.ConvertContactRelationToReference(); _entities.AddToContact(contact); //throws the exception _entities.SaveChanges(); ...

This error says you are trying to attach an entity to your context but its already attached to another one. ...My suspicion is that this is probably not a direct reference but perhaps one of the navigation properties on your context contains an entity which is attached to the other context.

You could try using ...AsNoTracking()... within your ...getActiveWorkSession().... That way, your entity is not tracked. ...Then when you need to change the entity, you can attach it to a new context with tracking.
