October Service Release (8.3.20083.2122) ArgumentException - Parameter is not valid.
posted

After installing the 2122 service release (from build 1009) our application will no longer run.
We get an unhandled ArgumentException of "Parameter is not valid."
This occurs in the InitializeComponent method of our startup form. Specifically it is on the following line.

((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.ultraDockManager1)).EndInit();

Our application uses the ribbon control. Using VS2008 on an XP 64 bit system.

Deleting the Dock Manager control results in the same exception being thrown at some point later in the code. Following is a portion of the stack trace with this later occurrence.

    Hi,

    I also get this kind of error after installing the hotfix 2009.2.2035 for WinForms. I updated from 2009.2.1003. In version 1003 exporting a ultrawingrid to excel works well. Now when I export the following error occurs:

    I reinstalled 2009.2.1003 and the export is working. So the hotfix is destroying my application. I also tried to install the hotfix 2017 with the same result as in .2035.

    Thank you for any help!

    Cheers
