I tested the Ninject stuff, as well as Windsor, StructureMap, and Unity. Enough code to make sure that the metadata stuff worked in each (multiple page hits, posting forms, etc). I even just demoed the StructureMap locator in a presentation less than an hour ago.

The only difference between what you wrote and every MVC Turbine application that I've ever written is that I always set the service locator in the constructor of the TurbineApplication. But I think Startup happens right about then, so I'm not sure yet.

I wish I could help more now, but it will have to be after hours.

The Windsor one is not working, at least with the nuget package. I emailed Javier about that last night, I'm almost positive that one is a versioning issue.

I did just try wiring up Ninject in the static constructor with the same issue.

public class MvcApplication : TurbineApplication
{
    static MvcApplication()
    {
        // Register the IoC that you want Mvc Turbine to use!
        // Everything else is wired automatically
        ServiceLocatorManager.SetLocatorProvider(() => new NinjectServiceLocator());
    }
}

You might hate me for this, but I ran your app locally, and....

It worked for me. I see a green site, with talk of you not being a ninja.

I did have to reinstall all of the nuget packages, because the references were broken. Plus, I'm running it under Cassini. I'll switch to IIS Express when I get home.

Well, thanks for looking at it! I'm not sure why the references would be broken. I peeked in the proj file and they seemed to be relative paths up to the packages directory and that's committed to github.

Nope, no dice on Cassini either. I mean, eventually if I just keep hitting continue on the errors, the site comes up.... but that's just odd all around.
