Exisiting Umbraco Umbraco v6.0.5 site throws No parameterless constructor defined for this object

I have an existing Umbraco v6.0.5 (Assembly version: 1.0.4869.18012) site which I built.

I got a new PC the other day and up until now, all my .NET projects have run fine on it.

I have loaded up the same code from the Umbraco site that is already working in production and on my old PC.

The site now throws: No parameterless constructor defined for this object when I hit a controller which inherits: RenderMvcController

Yes, this controller has no parameterless constructor as I use ninject to inject an interface into the following code:

public SignupController(ISignupManager signupManager)
{
    _signupManager = signupManager;
}

As I said, this code worked before and nothing has changed as I just did a fresh checkout of the working code from my SVN repo.

Any ideas would be great. Things to remember:

I am thinking that either I may be missing some thing that umbraco needs or my dependency injection is not firing.

Here is my stack trace:

Thanks in advance for any help.

If the code is exactly the same, then it will be a machine configuration issue. Do you have both MVC3 and MVC4 installed?

However, it does sound like something is not registering correctly. I know you say that this is a fresh/clean checkout but that doesn't necessarily mean that everything was checked-in that needed to be :)

I would check that the same bin folder contents exist between projects and also that your dependency registration code is present/correct in both projects. It sounds possible that your global.asax file isn't using the Ninject registration code or is using it incorrectly.

Whether that means that there is a DLL reference missing (e.g. MVC4) or whether the global.asax markup is inheriting from the from class.
