NHibernate exception with VS 2015 enterprise edition

Question

I get the following error when I try to configure NHibernate. I am using VS2015 enterprise edition, SQL server 2016 and NHibernate 3.3.3SP1 (I tried with the latest NHibernate but result is same) in windows 10 64 bit. I believe it is related to System.Data.SqlServerCe (System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll). I copied that dll to the Required_Bins folder.

Answer 1

SqlServerCeDriver is not for accessing full blown SQL Server, Sql Server Compact is another product. Your configuration is probably wrong, it should use SqlClientDriver instead.
