I'm not sure where to even begin solving this, but I'm getting an exception when trying to run my ASP.NET MVC app.
Here is the error I'm getting:
[ActivationException: Error activating IntPtr
No matching bindings are available, and the type is not self-bindable. Activation path:
- Injection of dependency IntPtr into parameter method of constructor of type Func{IKernel}
- Injection of dependency Func{IKernel} into parameter lazyKernel of constructor of type HttpApplicationInitializationHttpModule
- Request for IHttpModule
Suggestions:
- Ensure that you have defined a binding for IntPtr.
- If the binding was defined in a module, ensure that the module has been loaded into the kernel.
- Ensure you have not accidentally created more than one kernel.
- If you are using constructor arguments, ensure that the parameter name matches the constructors parameter name.
- If you are using automatic module loading, ensure the search path and filters are correct.
The stack trace is as follows:

This doesn't seem to be an error everyone is getting (at least, my Google searches haven't turned up anything usefuL), so I assume I'm doing something odd, but I have no idea where to begin debugging this.
I should mention that I'm using several Ninject libraries (Ninject, Ninject.Web.Common, Ninject.MVC3, and Ninject.FluentValidation), all of which are version 3.0.00-RC3. I realize that all bets are off if I use pre-release libraries, but I have a feeling I'm doing something wrong because others don't seem to be getting the same error.
Any thoughts on what the problem could be or where I should start looking?
I decided to delete my App_Start\NinjectWebCommon.cs file (which was created when I installed Ninject.MVC 3.0.0-rc2) and reinstall the Nuget package (rc3). The newly created NinjectWebCommon.cs file was slightly different. Problem solved!
