title: GlobalConfiguration does not contain a definition for Configure
body: <p>I'm attempting to create an ASP.NET MVC site that uses Database First Entity Framework.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using creating a new MVC 5 site in <strong>Visual Studio Professional 2013 Update 3</strong>, then adding an <strong>ADO.NET Entity Data Model</strong> from which I choose <strong>EF Designer from database</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>After that, I create a connection string, select the tables to generate the framework, and all is well.</p>
  
  <p>However when I compile it, I receive this error</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>'MyModel.GlobalConfiguration' does not contain a definition for
    'Configure'</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>This is in <strong>Global.asax.cs</strong> and errors here</p>
  
  <pre><code>protected void Application_Start()
  {
      AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
      GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register);
      FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
      RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
      BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>GlobalConfiguration</code> is automatically generated with the added entity framework for <code>MyModel</code>. It certainly doesn't have a Configure method.</p>
  
  <pre><code>public partial class GlobalConfiguration
  {
      public int ID { get; set; }
      public long CurrentUSN { get; set; }
      public string DBVersion { get; set; }
      public long CurrentFile { get; set; }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I followed all of the answers here <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20226715/globalconfiguration-configure-not-present-after-web-api-2-and-net-4-5-1-migra">GlobalConfiguration.Configure() not present after Web API 2 and .NET 4.5.1 migration</a> but none worked. It's a slightly different situation as this isn't an upgrade but is instead a clean project.</p>
  
  <p>All Extensions and NuGet packages are up to date. I've even deleted the generated entity and reinstalled all NuGet packages to see if that helped, but no luck.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?</p>
