    Message pretty much says it all. Your connection string is not valid. Check in your start projects config file. – Mattias Åslund Jun 10 '16 at 14:09
  • If code first, look at you Storage DbContext class, the constructor should have a name string based into the base method, this name string is the connection string it expects to find inside of your web.config / app.config.. this error suggests the connection string is missing or invalid – uk2k05 Jun 10 '16 at 14:23
