  • Did you upgrade the web part to be SP 2013 compatible. Also look for the correlation ID in the ULS logs. That will give an indication as to what might be wrong.

It's an easy fix, at least this worked for me. Steps:

  1. Double click package in Visual Studio

  2. Go to Advanced tab

  3. Change the product version to 14.0

and you are good to go

What @luckydeveloper answered is a solution but it is better you upgrade your solutions to SP2013 version aswell. You must make the package product version to 15.0.

You are getting the error because your user controls .cs file has a CONTROLTEMPLATES which you have to convert to CONTROLTEMPLATES/15/. Check my thread on
