Hi, We have a widget designer page that has HierarchicalTaxon field in it (pasted below).

<sitefinity:HierarchicalTaxonField ID="CategoryID" runat="server" DisplayMode="Write" Expanded="false" ExpandText="ClickToAddCategories"
ShowDoneSelectingButton="true" AllowMultipleSelection="false" BindOnServer="false" TaxonomyMetafieldName="Category"
WebServiceUrl="~/Sitefinity/Services/Taxonomies/HierarchicalTaxon.svc" />
<sitefinity:HierarchicalTaxonField ID="CategoryID" runat="server" DisplayMode="Write" Expanded="false" ExpandText="ClickToAddCategories"
ShowDoneSelectingButton="true" AllowMultipleSelection="false" BindOnServer="false" TaxonomyMetafieldName="Category"
WebServiceUrl="~/Sitefinity/Services/Taxonomies/HierarchicalTaxon.svc" />

when we open the widget designer, it always throws a javascript error that says "Failed to load resource (Sitefinity/Services/Taxonomies/HierarchicalTaxon.svc/batchpath/):

the server responded with a status of 500 (Id cannot be an Empty Guid)"

Anyone knows what causes this error?
