  1. Resolution Note:

    Convert.ToSingle is culture specific function, you can reproduce the same issue in simple .NET application

    CultureInfo.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("ru-RU");
    Convert.ToSingle("0.13")

    The proper fix, would be to do
    Convert.ToSingle("0.13", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) is it would language independent.

    CultureInfo.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture; Is it possible to solve this?

    Should I use CultureInfo.InvariantCulture for all Convert.To functions?
