Automapper is mapping incorrectly? - automapper

Question

I have two objects, Project is a DB entity and IProject which I am trying to save to the database:
public interface IProject
{
int ProjectID { get; set; }
string JobNumber { get; set; }
string JobName { get; set; }
string ProjectLocation { get; set; }
int? FeeTypeID { get; set; }
decimal? Fee { get; set; }
decimal? ConstructionCost { get; set; }
decimal? CostPerSquareFoot { get; set; }
decimal? SquareFoot { get; set; }
string Memo { get; set; }
DateTime? DateCompleted { get; set; }
int JobStatusID { get; set; }
int ProjectTypeID { get; set; }
}
//The inheritance is actually in a partial class that doesn't get overridden
public partial class Project : IProject
{
public Project()
{
this.ProjectContacts = new HashSet<ProjectContact>();
this.ProjectConsultants = new HashSet<ProjectConsultant>();
}
public int ProjectID { get; set; }
public string JobNumber { get; set; }
public string JobName { get; set; }
public Nullable<int> FeeTypeID { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> Fee { get; set; }
public int JobStatusID { get; set; }
public string Memo { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> Acreage { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> SquareFoot { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> ConstructionCost { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> BudgetPrice { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> ActualPrice { get; set; }
public Nullable<System.DateTime> DateCompleted { get; set; }
public Nullable<decimal> CostPerSquareFoot { get; set; }
public string ProjectLocation { get; set; }
public int ProjectTypeID { get; set; }
public Nullable<System.DateTime> StartDate { get; set; }
public Nullable<int> PhaseID { get; set; }
public string ProjectDescription { get; set; }
public Nullable<int> ArchitectID { get; set; }
public Nullable<int> ManagerID { get; set; }
public Nullable<int> ArchiveLocationID { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<ProjectContact> ProjectContacts { get; set; }
public virtual FeeType FeeType { get; set; }
public virtual JobStatu JobStatu { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<ProjectConsultant> ProjectConsultants { get; set; }
public virtual Person Person { get; set; }
public virtual ArchiveLocation ArchiveLocation { get; set; }
public virtual Person Person1 { get; set; }
public virtual Phase Phase { get; set; }
public virtual ProjectType ProjectType { get; set; }
}
I have my Map created:
Mapper.CreateMap<IProject, Data.Project>();
but for some reason whenever I call the map:
//mappingService is a wrapper I have around Automapper so that I can inject it
var project = _mappingService.Map<IProject, Data.Project>(request);
I get this error:
Missing type map configuration or unsupported mapping.
Mapping types:
RuntimeType -> FeeType
System.RuntimeType -> Renaissance.Data.FeeType
Destination path:
Project.FeeType.FeeType
Source value:
System.Decimal
I am not at any point trying to do that. The names match and even if I specifically tell it to map with:
.ForMember(dest => dest.Fee, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.Fee))
It still errors with the same message.
What am I missing?
UPDATE
This works:
.ForMember(dest => dest.FeeType, opt => opt.Ignore());
I think it is a hack that I need to do that. I shouldn't have to ignore a property in the destination that does not exist / is not named the same as something in the source property.
