Complex LINQ Query Returning Empty Result in .NET 7 with Entity Framework Core
I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy. I've been struggling with this for a few days now and could really use some help. I'm working with an scenario where a complex LINQ query returns an empty result set, despite the expected matching records existing in the database. I'm using .NET 7 with Entity Framework Core 7.0. I've checked the database and confirmed that there are records that should meet the criteria. Here's the query I'm using: ```csharp var results = await _context.Orders .Include(o => o.Customer) .Where(o => o.Status == OrderStatus.Completed && o.Customer.City == "New York" && o.OrderDate >= DateTime.UtcNow.AddMonths(-1)) .ToListAsync(); ``` Additionally, I've tried breaking down the query to isolate the scenario, but even simpler filters seem to yield no results. For example, when I run: ```csharp var results = await _context.Orders .Where(o => o.Status == OrderStatus.Completed) .ToListAsync(); ``` I still get an empty list, which suggests that there might be a question with how I'm querying the data. I've verified that the `OrderStatus` enum is correctly defined, and I'm confident that there are orders with the `Completed` status in the database. I also ran a direct SQL query against the database through a SQL client, and it returned the expected records. I've checked for any potential issues with tracking or lazy loading, but nothing seems amiss. Could this be a configuration scenario with my DbContext or a question with how Entity Framework Core is translating the LINQ query to SQL? Any help would be appreciated, especially if there's something subtle I'm missing with regards to EF Core's behavior in .NET 7. This is part of a larger service I'm building. For context: I'm using Csharp on macOS. Any ideas what could be causing this? This is part of a larger service I'm building. Hoping someone can shed some light on this.
