FIX: You cannot run .NET Framework 3.5-based Entity Framework applications in a partial trust environment on a computer that is running Windows 7 Client or Windows Server 2008 R2Article ID: 977866 - View products that this article applies to. On This PageSYMPTOMSIn the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, you cannot run Entity
Framework applications in a partial trust environment on a computer that is
running Windows 7 Client or Windows Server 2008 R2. CAUSEThe Entity Framework cannot be used in a partial trust
environment because the framework requires UnmanagedCode permission. Typically,
only full trust environments grant UnmanagedCode permission. Therefore, the
Entity Framework cannot be used in common partial trust environments such as an
ASP.NET medium trust environment. RESOLUTIONHotfix informationA supported hotfix is available from Microsoft.
