Runtime Error while connecting HANA DB from VS Code

[sumedhahire]

Dear Folks,

I am trying to connect SAP HANA instance from VS Code using .net 7.0.

I have installed .net7 SDK and SP

I am getting below error while creating HanaConnection object.

Exception has occurred: CLR/System.TypeInitializationException
An exception of type 'System.TypeInitializationException' occurred in Sap.Data.Hana.Core.v2.1.dll but was not handled in user code: 'The type initializer for 'Sap.Data.Hana.HanaConnection' threw an exception.'
 Inner exceptions found, see $exception in variables window for more details.
 Innermost exception 	 System.IO.FileNotFoundException : Cannot find a matching libadonetHDB.dll with version 2.11.14 - check the location in the HDBDOTNETCORE or PATH / LD_LIBRARY_PATH / DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables

You may refer below code for reference.

using System.Diagnostics;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using TestCode.Models;
using Sap.Data.Hana;
namespace TestCode.Controllers;
public class HomeController : Controlle{
    private readonly ILogger<HomeController> _logger;
    public HomeController(ILogger<HomeController> logger){
        _logger = logger;
        HanaConnection conn = new HanaConnection();
        conn.ConnectionString =  "connectionstring";
        conn.Open();conn.Close();
    }
    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }
    public IActionResult Privacy()
    {
        return View();
    }
    [ResponseCache(Duration = 0, Location = ResponseCacheLocation.None, NoStore = true)]
    public IActionResult Error()
    {
        return View(new ErrorViewModel { RequestId = Activity.Current?.Id ?? HttpContext.TraceIdentifier });
    }
}

This is a simple HANA client version mismatch, but it's not your fault. It can be solved in different ways, see this for a detailed explanation - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45233832/ado-net-provider-for-sap-hana-version-mismatch-issue
