For anyone landing here who is trying to upgrade from MVC 4 to MVC5, I was able to resolve this issue by following the instructions at http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/mvc-5/how-to-upgrade-an-aspnet-mvc-4-and-web-api-project-to-aspnet-mvc-5-and-web-api-2.

I also had to install the "Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.WebHost" package from nuget. But that's it.

Oh, and I had to create this appSetting: <add key="owin:AutomaticAppStartup" value="false" />

:)

Just one more suggestion    This was caused for me by some old dll s from an MVC 3 project after upgrading to MVC 5 in the site bin folder on the deployment server  Even though these dll s were no longer used by the code base they appeared to be causing the problem  Cleaned it all out and re-deployed and it was fine

For me this error was because I did NOT have Microsoft AspNet WebHelpers installed after updating from MVC 4 to MVC 5   It was fixed by installing the NuGet package  Install-Package -Id  Microsoft AspNet WebHelpers

I tried all of the above solutions and it still wouldn t work  until I found that the web config compilation element was referencing version 2 0 0 0 of WebMatrix Data and WebMatrix WebData  Changing the version of those entries in the web config to 3 0 0 0 helped me

If you are getting the error      Attempt by security transparent method    WebMatrix WebData PreApplicationStartCode Start      to access security critical method    System Web WebPages Razor WebPageRazorHost AddGlobalImport System String     failed     In order to fix this install this package using NuGet package manager   Install-Package Microsoft AspNet WebHelpers   After that   probably you will get another error      Cannot load WebMatrix Data version 3 0 0 0 assembly   to fix this install this package using NuGet package manager   Install-Package Microsoft AspNet WebPages Data

Deleting all files from bin and then rebuilding the solution worked for me

I installed webapi with it via the helppages nuget package  That package replaced most of the asp net mvc 4 binaries with beta versions which didn t work well together with the rest of the project  Fix was to restore the original mvc 4 dll s and all was good

For me this error was caused by DotNetOpenAuth not being compatible with MVC5 after upgrading from MVC4 to MVC5  Uninstalling Microsoft Web WebPages OAuth fixed the problem

You may also get       Could not load file or assembly  WebMatrix Data  Version 3 0 0 0    Culture neutral  PublicKeyToken 31bf3856ad364e35  or one of its   dependencies  The located assembly s manifest definition does not   match the assembly reference   Exception from HRESULT  0x80131040    This has moved to this package   Install-Package Microsoft AspNet WebPages Data   You should probably do a clean build before attempting any of the answers to this question and after updating packages
