I recently ran into this error. I have never came across this before so wondering!
Cannot access a disposed context instance. A common cause of this error is disposing a context instance that was resolved from dependency injection and then later trying to use the same context instance elsewhere in your application. This may occur if you are calling 'Dispose' on the context instance, or wrapping it in a using statement. If you are using dependency injection, you should let the dependency injection container take care of disposing context instances.
Object name: 'OrderDbContext'.
The only thing i missed which produced this error is the await keyword in the controller action method before _mediator.Send(checkoutCommand); Once I added the await keyword this error vanished.
What (the heck) is wrong with missing this await keyword? The error does not explicitly state that. Can someone explain why missing an await keyword cause an error that database context is disposed?
Controller Action:
public async Task<IActionResult> Checkout(CheckoutOrderCommand checkoutCommand)
{
**var id = _mediator.Send(checkoutCommand);**
return CreatedAtRoute("Get Order by Id", id);
}
CQRS Mediatr Instructions
public class CheckoutOrderCommandHandler : IRequestHandler<CheckoutOrderCommand, int>
{
private readonly IOrderUow _orderUow;
private readonly IMapper _mapper;
public CheckoutOrderCommandHandler(IOrderUow orderUow,
IMapper mapper)
{
_orderUow = orderUow;
_mapper = mapper;
}
public async Task<int> Handle(CheckoutOrderCommand request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
var order = _mapper.Map<Order>(request);
// Populate base entity fields
order.CreatedBy = Constants.CurrentUser;
// create new order
var newOrder = await _orderUow.AddOrderAsync(order);
return newOrder.Id;
}
}
Unit of work implementation
public class OrderUow : IOrderUow
{
private readonly OrderDbContext _orderContext;
public OrderUow(OrderDbContext orderContext)
{
_orderContext = orderContext;
}
public async Task<Order> AddOrderAsync(Order order)
{
try
{
await _orderContext.Orders.AddAsync(order);
await _orderContext.SaveChangesAsync();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
return order;
}
}
