Error upgrading from Sitefinity 8 to 10
Hello,
I am upgrading a project from version 8 to 10 and followed nuget method for that purpose. I have also manually changed authentication method in web config. After building the project without any issues, it threw a runtime exception as below
Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation.ActivationException was unhandled by user code HResult=-2146233088 Message=Activation error occurred while trying to get instance of type LogWriter, key "" Source=Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation StackTrace: at Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation.ServiceLocatorImplBase.GetInstance(Type serviceType, String key) in c:\Projects\CommonServiceLocator\main\Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation\ServiceLocatorImplBase.cs:line 53 at Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation.ServiceLocatorImplBase.GetInstance[TService]() in c:\Projects\CommonServiceLocator\main\Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation\ServiceLocatorImplBase.cs:line 90 at Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions.Log.get_Writer() at Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions.Log.Write(LogEntry log) at Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions.Log.Write(Object message, ICollection`1 categories, Int32 priority, Int32 eventId, TraceEventType severity, String title, IDictionary`2 properties) at Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions.Log.Write(Object message, String category, Int32 priority, Int32 eventId, TraceEventType severity, String title, IDictionary`2 properties) at Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions.Log.Write(Object message, String category) at Telerik.Sitefinity.Abstractions.Log.Write(Object message, ConfigurationPolicy category) at Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.SitefinityHttpModule.HandleBootstrapException(Exception exception) InnerException: Telerik.Microsoft.Practices.Unity.ResolutionFailedException HResult=-2146233088 Message=Resolution of the dependency failed, type = "Telerik.Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.LogWriter", name = "(none)".Exception occurred while: while resolving.Exception is: InvalidOperationException - The type LogWriter cannot be constructed.

The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
But in properties I can see that mentioned version is referenced in the solution.
Is there anything I am missing? Or do I need to upgrade it to Sitefinity 9 first?
I went with multi step upgrade. So I upgraded first from Sitefinity 8 to 9, and then 9 to 10. While upgrading from 9 to 10 I found out that Telerik.Sitefinity.Mvc package was getting uninstalled automatically. I checked and found out that there were two different versions present for that in the packages folder. So deleted the older version and upgrade was successful.
So Issue may be this package from the beginning.
