Web Application Error: Sequence contains more than one element

I have a web application that was working fine but does not work anymore. It even works on my development computer (hooked up to a local database), but not on production. So on my development computer, I change the connection string to hit the production database and I get the Error: Sequence contains more than one element.

I believe it has to have something to do with the database, but I don't know how to figure out what it is, there are almost a thousand rows of data in it.

Below is the linq statement that gets the data. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance

protected void lnqItems_Selecting(object sender, LinqDataSourceSelectEventArgs e)
{
    DocksideValidationDataContext db = new DocksideValidationDataContext();

    DateTime startDate = (radStartDate.SelectedDate.HasValue)
        ? radStartDate.SelectedDate.Value
        : DateTime.Parse("1/1/1900");
    DateTime endDate = (radEndDate.SelectedDate.HasValue)
        ? radEndDate.SelectedDate.Value
        : DateTime.Parse("1/1/2500");
    int prevalNum = (txtSummaryFormNumber.Text.Trim() == "")
        ? -1
        : Convert.ToInt32(txtSummaryFormNumber.Text.Trim());

    e.Result = (from x in db.SummaryForms
                where (x.SummaryFormId == prevalNum
                    || (prevalNum == -1)
                    && (x.SampleDate >= startDate.Date)
                    && (x.SampleDate <= endDate.Date)
                    && (x.StateId == Convert.ToInt32(ddlState.SelectedValue)))
                orderby (x.SampleDate) descending
                select x).AsEnumerable()
                     开发者_高级运维    .Select(x => new
                         {
                             x.SummaryFormId,
                             x.SampleDate,
                             DockName = x.Dock.Code + " " + x.Dock.Name,
                             Status = GetStatus(x),
                             Color = GetStatusColor(GetStatus(x))
                         })
                        .Where(x => ((prevalNum != -1
                            || cboFilter.Text == "All")
                            || (x.Status == cboFilter.Text)));
}

No it occurred to me, but I didn't think it would be usefully. Here is it:

The exception suggests that the set you are querying with Linq contains multiple items that match your query, and you are calling SingleOrDefault which throws an exception in such a situation.

You might be looking to use FirstOrDefault instead which takes the first match of the query.

Though it's hard to tell because I don't see a call to SingleOrDefault in your pasted code sample.

I have solved the problem! Thanks for your imput. The issue was a duplicate record in the database was inserted and when the program was pulling the data back it was only suppose to pull one record back and it was getting 2. Thanks!
