Cannot convert from 'System.Web.Mvc.ModelStateDictionary' to 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ModelBinding.ModelStateDictionary'

Question

When I try to build my WEB API project on MS VS 2015 I am getting an erroras shown below.

CS1503 Argument 3: cannot convert from 'System.Web.Mvc.ModelStateDictionary' to 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ModelBinding.ModelStateDictionary'

.

I don't know why they down-voted you, but I had exactly same problem, and would never figure it out if I didn't see it on yours question. Thank you. — Kadaj

In your project you are using System.Web.ModelBinding so please change it to using System.Web.Mvc;
