asp.net mvc 3, glimpse and null reference error

Question

I installed glimpse a few days ago. Ever since I installed it I get this weird error that pops up every once in a while. I am not sure if the error is because of glimpse or was it glimpse that reveal the error to me. Any hows, if any one has a clue what can be this error all about and how can I solve it, I highly appreciate the help!!!!

the stack:

   at System.Web.HttpContextWrapper..ctor(HttpContext httpContext)
   at Glimpse.AspNet.AspNetFrameworkProvider.get_HttpRequestStore()
   at Glimpse.Core.Framework.GlimpseRuntime.GetTabStore(String tabName)
   at Glimpse.Core.Extensibility.TabSetupContext.GetTabStore()
   at Glimpse.AspNet.GlimpseTraceListener.get_FirstWatch()
   at Glimpse.AspNet.GlimpseTraceListener.InternalWrite(String message, String category)
   at System.Diagnostics.TraceInternal.TraceEvent(TraceEventType eventType, Int32 id, String format, Object[] args)
   at Elmah.ErrorMailModule.ReportError(Object state)
   at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.RunInternal(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state, Boolean preserveSyncCtx)
   at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(ExecutionContext executionContext, ContextCallback callback, Object state, Boolean preserveSyncCtx)
   at System.Threading.QueueUserWorkItemCallback.System.Threading.IThreadPoolWorkItem.ExecuteWorkItem()
   at System.Threading.ThreadPoolWorkQueue.Dispatch()

What is the actual error type/message? This call stack does run through Glimpse, so it looks like there may be a issue with Glimpse but we'll need to know the exception. — nikmd23, Feb 11 '13 at 16:54

This has been verified as a bug in Glimpse.

You can track the progress of the fix on the Glimpse GitHub Issue Tracker.

I expect this bug to be fixed within the next few days and available in the nightly builds and next release.

UPDATE Feb 13 2013

This issue has now been fixed and will be available in Glimpse 1.0 stable, which will be out shortly. If you'd like to use it right way, grab the nightly build from Feb 13+.
