TF30063: You are not authorized to access MyServer

I failed twice trying to create new project now I am trying to delete and getting the above error MyServer is the server name.

I am logged on with an account that is a member of the local adimistrators group. 

If I go to http://localhost/ I get page cannot be displayed

If I go to http://localhost:8080/ I get HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden

I've added TFSSETUP to local admins group also since failing to create projects.  Does anybody have a check list of security options to setup

    I've put service and report accounts into Local Admins group but I think I have a bigger problem becuase when I try to access any web sites now I get a page not found error even though the web publishing service is runnning.  Am I at the point where I need to start again from the beginning

    What I really could do with is a check list such as Log On as a menber of local admins then Try A

    Try B

    Etc and

    Correct.
    We are trying to uncover and address exactly what permissions are required (for TFS Service and TFS Reports accounts) for both setup and running project creation, as there have been numerous postings about this

    Placing these accounts in your local admin group (see http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=96872) may alleviate your problems, but this is not a long term solution as it represents a security risk.

    I would recommend trying the workaround on another thread first: the solution was to provide the TFSService account with Modify permissions on the ASP1.1 Temp File Folders. See http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=95559, page 2 posting by Gregory Williams.

    When you say that you cannot access any web sites now, does this include the Sharepoint Central Administration site
    Did you check to see if the default web site has been extended

    I also noticed on another thread that you installed WSS SP2.  Is this correct

    Darren,

    Did installation occur without any errors  
    The Sharepoint default web site may not have been successfully extended.  PCW will fail until this is properly configured.
    Can you browse to the sharepoint central admin site (Start->Programs->Admin tools->Sharepoint Central Administration), and check your sharepoint server extensions for the default web site.

    Is this a single or dual server install Is it installed on a domain or a workgroup Was this on a clean set of machines
    What version of Windows Sharepoint is installed

    Thanks,

    Check your TFSService account has the appropriate security. One way is to put it in the local admin group on the TFS box. Do the same for the TFSReports account. Hopefully, you should be able to create your projects after this. There are quite a few posts in this forum about these permission issues.

    Hope this helps.
