Hi, I got the same problem (with visual studio 2013 and nmm) but the error message shows System.Net.Http 4.0.0.0 and not 2.0.0.0. Ive tried with this one (asp.net mvc) and Ive noticed I got multiples system.net.http.dll in various directories. any idea which one I should try?

thanks

Hi @UnderPL. Sorry I didn't see your comment earlier.

It's been a while since I made this script, so my memory on this is a little fuzzy, but the system.net.http.dll that I used is the one installed via the installer mentioned in the comments. You could potentially try others, but I'm not sure which will be correct for your situation.
