After upgrading webpack to 2.3.0 I get this error (twice, while running "webpack --config webpack.config.vendor.js"):

Invalid configuration object. Webpack has been initialised using a configuration object that does not match the API schema. - configuration[0].output.path: The provided value "c:/FULL_PATH/dist" is not an absolute path!

I think it has something to do with this config section:

	const clientBundleConfig = merge(sharedConfig, {
		output: { path: path.join(__dirname, 'wwwroot', 'dist') },
		module: {
			rules: [
                { test: /\.css(\?|$)/, use: extractCSS.extract({ use: 'css-loader' }) }
			]
		},
		plugins: [
            extractCSS,
            new webpack.DllPlugin({
            	path: path.join(__dirname, 'wwwroot', 'dist', '[name]-manifest.json'),
            	name: '[name]_[hash]'
            })
		].concat(isDevBuild ? [] : [
            new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin()
		])
	});

All work with webpack 2.2.1. Any idea what to change?
