无法将类型为“System.String”的 object 转换为类型“System.Byte []”错误 MYSQL NET CORE 3.1

Question

I am implementing Mysql.EntityFramework.Core with NET CORE 3.1. When fetching data it gives the error "Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'System.Byte []'." Example in:

public new async Task<IList<Rol>> GetAllAsync(Expression<Func<Rol, bool>> condition)
    {
        var roles = await _dbContext.Rol  // <=== HERE Line 26 RolDataStore
            .Where(condition).ToListAsync();

        return roles;
    }

In my configurationDALContext say:

public static void ConfigureDALContext(this IServiceCollection services, string dbConnection)
    {
        services.AddDbContext<MyDbContext>(options =>
        {
            options.UseMySQL(dbConnection);
        });
        
    }

Can someone help solve this?

Thanks very much!!

edit. Model Rol:

public class Rol : IEntity, ISoftDeleteEntity
{
    private Guid _id;
    public Guid Id
    {
        get
        {
            return _id == Guid.Empty ? Guid.NewGuid() : _id;
        }
        set
        {
            _id = value;
        }
    }

    public string Nombre { get; set; }
    public string Descripcion { get; set; }
    public virtual ICollection<Usuario> Usuarios { get; set; }
    public DateTime? FechaBaja { get; set; }

}

And the table "Rol":

Answer 1

Finally solved it by installing Nuget "Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql" and uninstalling Mysql.Core. This automatically parses it from Char to Guid.

Answer 2

The Id column in the database is a string. This is what is returned from the query. But the Id property in the C# side is a Guid . C# Guid values are binary; you have a mismatch there. You need to have Guid.Parse() somewhere, or change the C# Id property to string.

Also, guids are fixed-length, so if that's really what you're doing, varchar(64) seems kind of odd. Depending on how they are formatted , you want one of char(32), char(36), char(38), or char(68).
