I suggest checking what you have in packages.config, web.config and packages folder. They must all link to the same version of the package. Quite often, if you update a version of a package via NuGet, there may be compatibility issues. Postscript If that doesn't work, you can uninstall and re-enable OWIN via NuGet.
