Insert to SQL Server throws exception - Specified type is not registered on the target server.

Hi,

I'm not sure about purpose of the library now. Is it meant to be able to work with spatial types or I can use it also to fill in tables in SQL server (2019)?

Using data tables I got follownig error:

[11:16:29 ERR] Error storing timetable dataset
System.InvalidOperationException: The given value of type SqlGeography from the data source cannot be converted to type udt of the specified target column.

Data table code:

table.Columns.Add(nameof(FlexibleAreaEntity.PosList), typeof(SqlGeography));

..

newRow[nameof(FlexibleAreaEntity.PosList)] =
    SqlGeography.STGeomFromText(new SqlChars($@"MULTIPOLYGON ((({_separator.Separate(item.PosList)})))"), 4326);

@valdisiljuconoks I had the same problem. I changed to use Microsoft.Data.SqlClient instead of System.Data.SqlClient. It works.
