Using Telerk WebUI VSExtensions 2011.02.712.0 I cannot get the upgrade wizard to work to upgrade my web site.

I use VS2010 to open a web site, when I open my website I get the dialgo from the Telerik top menu that it has detected the project uses an old version of Telerik controls, asks if want to upgrade, I click "YES" at that point it tells me that no projects are selected and that i should "Please go back and select at least one project in order to continue the upgrade"

The same thing happens when I right-click the top level folder in the solution explorer, choose "Rad Controls for ASP.NET AJAX" and click Upgrade Wizard.

This is a .NET 2.0 web site.

Anyone else running into this?

Thanks.

While I was aware that Telerik was no longer shipping controls that supported .NET 2.0 for ASP.NET AJAX, I did not automatically make the assumption that the VS Extensions would no longer be able to configure older projects that were using the older assemblies.

I totally understand why I cannot upgrade a .NET 2.0 project to the latest 2011 controls, but can anyone confirm that it is an intentional feature that the VS Extensions are no longer able to upgrade a .NET 2.0 project to the most current .NET 2.0 assemblies. Was the ability to configure a .NET 2.0 project (with no upgrade involved) removed as well?

VS Extensions did seem to support configuration of older projects and offered upgrades to the 2009 version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX that were present on this machine after the Q1 2011 release but that all went away with the Q2 2011 release.

Thanks for your help.

Thank you,

I would ike to try that. Even after I change the target framework of my web site to bet .NET 4.0, close every thing, re-open it, confirm that the framework is, in fact, .NET 4.0 then attempt to use the "Configure Project" or "Upgrade Wizard" they both still fail. Configure project shows me no configurtion options and the upgrade wizard still tells me that "no projects selected".

Experiencing a different issue that has nothing to do with out of date projects. I have a .NET 4.0 telerik web site project open and am using (in this case) VSExtensions 2011.2.719.0. In this case the web site is using RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX v.2011.2.7102.40 Dev

When I attempt to do an upgrade. via - right click, RadControls, Upgrade Wizard

I accept all of the default choices in the upgrade wizard and am now going to try to upgrade my project to Telerik.Web.Ui v.2011.2.830.40. So, click, Next, Next, etc. until "Finish". When I click Finish a back up is made as specified in the default choices I accepted but then I get an error that states:

Error exuting custom action Telerik.Web.UI.VSX.Actions.MultiProjectUpdateReferencesAction: The given assembly name or codebase was invalid (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131047).

Is this an installation issue? An issue because I am using a web site instead of a web project? Some odd thing on my machine that no-one has ever seen before?

Any and all insight is appreciated.

Thanks!
