Ninject + “Error loading Ninject component ICache”

Question

I\'ve just installed the new Ninject.MVC3 from NuGet and trying to make it work in my asp.net mvc 3 app, however I get this weird error now and then when surfing my site:

Like previously mentioned it does look like a bug.
One option is to simply implement a singleton extension method yourself:

public static class NinjectSingletonExtension
{
    public static CustomSingletonKernelModel SingletonBind(this IKernel i_KernelInstance)
    {
        return new CustomSingletonKernelModel(i_KernelInstance);
    }
}

public class CustomSingletonKernelModel
{
    private const string k_ConstantInjectionName = "Implementation";
    private readonly IKernel _kernel;
    private static object padlock = new Object();

    private T _concreteInstance;


    public CustomSingletonKernelModel(IKernel i_KernelInstance)
    {
        this._kernel = i_KernelInstance;
    }

    public IBindingInNamedWithOrOnSyntax To(TImplement i_Constant = null) where TImplement : class, T
    {
        _kernel.Bind().To().Named(k_ConstantInjectionName);
        var toReturn =
            _kernel.Bind().ToMethod(x =>
                                       {
                                           if (i_Constant != null)
                                           {
                                               return i_Constant;
                                           }

                                           if (_concreteInstance == null)
                                           {
                                               lock (padlock)
                                               {
                                                   if (_concreteInstance == null)
                                                   {
                                                       _concreteInstance = _kernel.Get(k_ConstantInjectionName);
                                                   }
                                               }
                                           }


                                           return _concreteInstance;
                                       }).When(x => true);

        return toReturn;
    }
}

And then simply use:

i_Kernel.SingletonBind().To();

Rather then

i_Kernel.Bind().To().InSingletonScope();
