Running VS2012 Ultimate and I am trying to use the Telerik Upgrade Wizard on my web project.
I am trying to upgrade to version Telerik.Web.Ui v.2014.3.1209.40 from v.2012.2.815.35

After clicking through, I get the error:

The wizard encountered an error while trying to handle user event.System.ArgumentException: The path is not of a legal form.
   at System.IO.Path.NormalizePath(String path, Boolean fullCheck, Int32 maxPathLength, Boolean expandShortPaths)
   at System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(String path)

   at Telerik.WizardEngine.Helpers.EventHelper.<>c__DisplayClass1.<RaiseEvent>b__0()
   at Telerik.WizardEngine.Helpers.EventHelper.CatchExceptionAndSendReport(Action action)

and the Wizard fails. I have no other problems with upgrading. The project path is reasonable, has no funny characters in the folder name.

Any ideas? How would I go about upgrading the project manually if required?

Thanks,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,

Thank you for contacting us.

This was a known issue with our VS extensions. The problem occurs when our Upgrade Wizard is trying to upgrade a web site project which does not have associated solution file with it.

However, we already fixed this issue. I would suggest you to update our VS extensions to the latest version and give it another try. The following steps will help you to do that:
  1. Open Visual Studio
  2. Go to Extensions and Updates
  3. Click on the Update tab on the left
  4. Go to Visual Studio Gallery
  5. Select Telerik ASP.NET AJAX VSExtensions and click ​Update
  6. Restart ​Visual Studio when prompted

If you need any further assistance, do not hesitate to contact us.
