in MVC4 shows and error that I have to implement some Interface but I am already done it

Question

I am trying to create own filter attribute in order to support multilinguality. The idea is simple. URL stands for language.

• *http://host.ext/en/rest_of_the_url* will open in English and
• *http://host.ext/hy/rest_of_the_url* will open in Armenian.

The problem is that at run it says that MultilingualActionFilterAttribute

Here is the error text "The given filter instance must implement one or more of the following filter interfaces: IAuthorizationFilter, IActionFilter, IResultFilter, IExceptionFilter."

Here I am using it as global filter.

namespace TIKSN.STOZE.WebApp
{
    public class FilterConfig
    {
        public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(System.Web.Mvc.GlobalFilterCollection filters)
        {
            filters.Add(new TIKSN.STOZE.Common.MultilingualActionFilterAttribute());
            filters.Add(new System.Web.Mvc.HandleErrorAttribute());
        }
    }
}

Here I am defining it.

namespace TIKSN.STOZE.Common
{
    public class MultilingualActionFilterAttribute : System.Web.Mvc.ActionFilterAttribute
    {
        public override void OnActionExecuting(System.Web.Mvc.ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
        {
            string language = System.Convert.ToString(filterContext.RouteData.Values["language"]);

            System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print("Requested language is '{0}'", language);
            language = Helper.PickUpSupportedLanguage(language);
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print("Supported language is '{0}'", language);

            if (language == string.Empty)
            {
                filterContext.HttpContext.Response.RedirectToRoutePermanent(new { language = Common.Properties.Settings.Default.DefaultLanguageCode });
            }

            language = Helper.TryToPickUpSupportedLanguage(language);

            System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(language);
            System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(language);
        }
    }
}

The problem was that I updated to MVC 5, so I had to update web.config files too. Look here.
