EF 4.3 migration error on Enable-Migrations

Question

I am following the EF blogs posted here to generate migration for my database.

When I am run Enable-Migration -Force -Verbose against my data model, it  created the configuration class for me in migration folder, however , it didn't create the initial base migration for me. I received the following error 

No migrations configuration type was found in the assembly '**** my assembly name'. (In Visual Studio you can use the Enable-Migrations command from Package Manager Console to add a migrations configuration).

Any idea what I am missing here.

Hi John,

Welcome!

You should create your database firstly. In the link the code for create database:

 using (var db = new BlogContext())
            {
                db.Blogs.Add(new Blog { Name = "Another Blog " });
                db.SaveChanges();

                foreach (var blog in db.Blogs)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(blog.Name);
                }
            }

then--"Enable-Migrations"

Have a nice day.
