Untitled I am running into this issue when trying to build, thanks for any help on this error

Reference to member ‘sqlite’ cannot be resolved without a contextual type

@alfred1963 are you running on Xcode 11.4 Beta? If so, that’s a known issue with the 5.2 compiler and you need to provide the full database identifier.

If not, does Acronym conform to SQLiteModel?

UPDATE: I found the solution at: Vapor 3: Swift 5.2 Regression - Vapor - Swift Forums

~~Please. I upgrade to Swift 5.2 compiler and now I am getting same error. I didn’t figure out how ‘provide full database identifier’. Could you give me a example?
My Code is
migrations.add(model: Todo.self, database: .sqlite)

Try using DatabaseIdentifier<Todo.Database>.sqlite

It’s a bug in the Swift 5.2 compiler - you can read about it in the forum link posted above.

Still having issue and the above fix doesnt seem to working. migrations.add(model: Acronym.self, database: DatabaseIdentifier<SQLiteDatabase>.sqlite)

Throws the error
Cannot convert value of type ‘DatabaseIdentifier’ to expected argument type ‘DatabaseIdentifier<Acronym.Database>’

    migrations.add(model: Acronym.self, database:  DatabaseIdentifier<Acronym.Database>.sqlite)
