I got a similar problem with another package in Visual Studio 2013, I cleared the NuGet package cache with the option "Clear Package Cache" and it works now.

In my case, I could not install any package and got a similar error. The issue was solved as I unchecked the "Microsoft and .NET" under "Machine-wide package source":

I hope this can be help someone.

I just ran into this myself. The reference to WebActivatorEx didn't work. You'll have to do it manually. The file is in the packages directory.
