Unable to retrieve metadata for '[myNameSpace].Models.prod'. Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.Entity.Core.Objects.ObjectContext' to type 'System.Data.Objects.ObjectContext'.
Does EF 6 support scaffolding?

Popular Answer
I was battling with this kind of problem for almost 3 days, but I later found two solutions:
Command
- Open an empty MVC Solution
- Open your Package manager console
- Type this command (Install-Package EntityFramework -Version 5.0.0 )
Default Framework
Select an internet application option of the ASP.NET MVC project template on Visual Studio 2012. By default Entity framework 5 came with it so there is no need to run your package manager console again.
Best of luck!
