    Umbraco 10 and external database access by nuget package "Microsoft.Data.SqlClient"

    Hey community!

    I am struggling with an issue in Umbraco 10 and I hope, you can help me out here!

    We are implementing a new website with Umbraco 10 (v10.0.1 as no-cloud-solution with a custom MS SQL Server). When debugging the page in Visual Studio it is showing up and everything is fine.

    Now we try accessing an external database. To achieve that I installed the nuget package Microsoft.Data.SqlClient (v4.1.0, same with v5.0.0) with all its dependencies. Now, when I start debugging, the Umbraco page is not starting anymore but the Umbraco installation wizard is shown.

    I researched a while but cannot find any hint how to access an external database with Microsoft.Data.SqlClient package in a Umbraco 10 project.

    What am I doing wrong? Is it possible to install the nuget package Microsoft.Data.SqlClient in an Umbraco 10 project?

    Thanks in advance, Ben

    There's a bug in certain versions of v10 meaning that if the DB connection can't be found it automatically triggers the installation wizard. So that's why that is appearing.
