Problem
From a page in IIS or a debug session in Visual Studio, you receive the following error:
The associated metadata type for type contains the following unknown properties or fields:
Please make sure that the names of these members match the names of the properties on the main type
Root Cause
The MetadataGenerator.cs file has references to out-of-date relationships.
Solution

Be careful that you don’t lose custom DataAnnotations that you have made for UI and client-side error handling.
