Category: Errors

Hey everyone,

I ran into the following error this morning:

It turns out there are a few causes for this. My issue was that I was attempting to open a result set while already iterating over another one.

 //Retrieve list of cart products and create list of suborders
 var cartProducts = db.CartProducts.Where(cartProduct => cartProduct.CartId == userOrder.CartId);

//Loop through each cart product
foreach(var cartProduct in cartProducts)
{
     //Retrieve suborder
     SubOrder subOrder = subOrders.Find(x => x.BusinessId == cartProduct.Product.BusinessId);

The solution to this was pretty easy thankfully. Simply add “ToList()” to the end of the initial request:

 //Retrieve list of cart products and create list of suborders
 var cartProducts = db.CartProducts.Where(cartProduct => cartProduct.CartId == userOrder.CartId).ToList();

An alternative solution is to modify your connection string in order to allow multiple result multiple result sets. Simply add the following to provider part:

MultipleActiveResultSets=true
