Issue with System.Web.WebPages after installing MVC4 - asp.net-mvc-3

I have installed MVC4 and an MVC3 app that I have is now causing me problems. I get the error :
Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.WebPages, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference
However, I cannot find any references in my code to v2 of WebPages, and I am wondering why I am getting this error. Can anybody help?
EDIT : Here is the full stack trace :
[FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.WebPages, Version=2.0.0.0, 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)]

I guess you are using some NuGet or something that depends on WebPages 2.0 (a.k.a System.Web.WebPages, Version=2.0.0.0). You probably updated this NuGet or whatever it is and now you have dependency with this assembly.

I am working in mvc3 razor my project fistly run correctly but i get the error

Please any one give me help about this.
Have you installed .NET Framework 4.5 or Visual Studio 2012? The problem is most likely a bug in the framework. You may find your answers here:
http://elegantcode.com/2012/08/23/net-4-5-operation-could-destabilize-the-runtime-yikes/
We had a similar issue with one of our projects. We had been using MVC3 and tried upgrading to MVC4. We also upgraded to Razor 2.0. Turned out that the web.configs did not all update as expected. Check your web config in the ~/Views folder as well as the root web.config and make sure the assembly binding redirects are correct and all the assembly references are correct. We did that and the issue went away

Why won't Visual Studio break on this unhandled exception?

When submitting a form, a Yellow Screen of Death appeared even while in Debug mode in Visual Studio. The problem I had is solved, it was a missing resource value, but I'm interested in why I'm not able to break on the exception.
I tried the following, but nothing changed the situation:
Stepping through the code.
Changing the Debug -> Exceptions settings.
Checking Enable .NET Framework source stepping and Enable source server support.
How can such an exception be caught, or why is it not possible to catch it?

It is not possible to break on this exception, because Microsoft's public Symbol Server does not provide source code for everything.
Adding a breakpoint via the dialog to System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.ValidationContext.set_DisplayName will break, but Visual Studio will say that there is no source code available.
Looks like you have some dataAnnotationAttribute for model field, so asp.net takes care about it - before your request fires breakpoint in controller

Security Exception with medium trust, ninject and entity framework

I keep getting this exception whenever I try running my project in medium trust. The project is MVC Forum, and even though I don't need to run any of my own sites in medium trust, I figure I better make it work in the medium trust environment anyway.
I'm using Ninject for DI (the DLL that works in medium trust), and that works - the MVC controllers are loaded with constructor injection as expected.
The "funny" thing is that the method (in my code) that fails, take 2 arguments, these are both loaded from the database using entity framework, so I have no idea why this fails, when entity framework clearly already work in other parts of the code.
What is the reason behind this exception? It's like looking for the famous needle in a haystack.

Small update, I'm using code first. Thanks for looking!
This looks like the exception you get if your entity classes contain properties that are not public--i.e. they are internal, protected, or private. EF5 and below only support mapping to public properties when running in a partial trust environment.

This could be related to table in which I duplicated a foreign key. It was called something like myKeyId, and I now have myKey1Id and myKey2Id in that table. I checked everywhere in my code, and I can't find myKeyId anymore.
The error message is so generic that I don't know how to pin-point what is causing this error. Any advice would be welcome.
I hade the same error.
I did clean solution rebuilt and it worked.
My solution was to turn off IIS and then start VS project again.
I ran into this error today, too.
It turned out, that my data model has missing the foreign and primary key constraints in the data base.
I had copied the original database to a local database to speed up the execution, but I had only copied the data and not the relationships.
Other errors i had in this context were
an item with the same key has already been added
and
Unable to update the EntitySet Table because it has a DefiningQuery and no InsertFunction element exists in the ModificationFunctionMapping element to support the current operation
it all was due to a faultive database structure
Ran into this issue today. I deleted all of my tables from the Entity Model .edmx file, the updated my model from the Database (right-click --> update from database).
Then I re-compiled and it ran fine. Such an odd error.
I am running MVC 4 and EF 5.0

Example of implementing a ViewModel for the Razor _Layout.cshtml

I have read that you can use a ViewModel for your _Layout in Razor but I have not seen any examples...
At the top of my _Layout i have..
#inherits System.Web.Mvc.WebViewPage<CAPPortal.ViewModels.MasterViewModel>
but every time I try to access one of the properties I get an error..
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Line 23: #Model.Foobar
Exception:
[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]

Please make sure that you're passing in an actual model object when you render the view. For example:
public ActionResult ShowStuff() {
return View(new MyModelType());
}
If you don't pass in a model object then the Model property will indeed be null, and trying to access a property of it within the view will of course throw a NullReferenceException.
