I fixed my problem. On my /config/trees/config there were some custom sections added by packages Diplo.AuditLog and LeBlender and these were generating the error. Yesterday I had replaced the file, but it seems that it did not work.
Today, I overwrote the file again with the one that comes in Umbraco's .zip and it worked.
Hi Alex, I actually replied to the wrong topic :)
At first I was getting the same error (not being able to login). What I did was basically adding the web.config from version 7.6.10 and running the upgrade again.
After the upgrade, I was able to login, but there was an error and the menu was not loading (https://our.umbraco.org/forum/using-umbraco-and-getting-started/88771-getsections-error-after-upgrade-to-773)
Diplo.AuditLog and Leblender add custom sections to the file tree.config which generated the error. I then replaced tree.config for the clean version that comes with 7.7.3 zip package and it worked like a charm.
Unable to login after upgrade to 7.7.2
Hello, I'm not able to upgrade my Umbraco local version (7.6.4) 'cause I cannot login to the administration area.
I tried all that was recommended in the forum:
Nothing of these step are working.
If I try to login I receive this error:
If I try to use the Forgotten password:
What can I do?
I found the problem: I've to leave the tag "UsersMembershipProvider" on the old Web.Config while upgrading.
This is the full code of the tag:
What does this mean? You had to leave the tag or leaving the tag caused the problem?
Hi Bob, I am facing the exact same problem.
How did you upgrade it? Did you leave the web.config from 7.6.4 during the upgrade or have you changed to the 7.7.2 webconfig?
Hi Francielle,
no, I've used a tool for compare the previous and the new web.config.
Then I've made the correct changes ;)

Hi Francielle,
Nice point, what error did this package generate? Can you share with us?
