For some reason today, when I run a build type (automated build) thru the VSTS Interface.
I get the following message back:
"Failed to retrieve data from the server. Please verify the network connection and try again."
I have no problem building the Solutions manually. Only encounter problems thru the Build Type.
I see the following in Event Viewer on the Team Foundation Server log:
"

Team Build unable to Run Auto Builds now

I'm afraid it sounds like your best bet is to go to RTM. Based on the timeline you mentioned above you should be about there by now

This weekend we upgrade to RTM.
Everything looked good, but then problem happened again intermittently.
I dont know if this is the culprit. I added this at the very end of the TFSBuild.proj, right before </Project>
My goal is to get the autobuild to package the code after it is built.
Is this also the correct way to include the build packages
Added code:
--------------------
<
Target Name="AfterCompile"><
Exec Command=""$(VS80COMNTOOLS)\..\IDE\devenv"
"$(SolutionRoot)\WCF-Prototype\SetupMarsServer\SetupMarsServer.vdproj /Build "Release|Any CPU"" /><
Copy SourceFiles="$(SolutionRoot)\WCF-Prototype\SetupMarsServer\Release\SetupMarsServer.msi" DestinationFolder="$(OutDir)" /><
Exec Command=""$(VS80COMNTOOLS)\..\IDE\devenv"
"$(SolutionRoot)\MARS_UI\MARS_UI_WebSetup\MARS_UI_WebSetup.vdproj /Build "Release|Any CPU"" /><
Copy SourceFiles="$(SolutionRoot)\MARS_UI\MARS_UI_WebSetup\Release\MARS_UI_WebSetup.msi" DestinationFolder="$(OutDir)" /><
Exec Command=""$(VS80COMNTOOLS)\..\IDE\devenv"
"$(SolutionRoot)\MARS_ASP_Website\MARS_ASP_WebSetup\MARS_ASP_WebSetup.vdproj /Build "Release|Any CPU"" /><
Copy SourceFiles="$(SolutionRoot)\MARS_ASP_Website\MARS_ASP_WebSetup\Release\MARS_ASP_WebSetup.msi" DestinationFolder="$(OutDir)" /></

Any chance the proxy settings in IE are incorrect for the account that's used to do the build Did the password expire

Maybe Anu has a guess as to what's going on, but at this point the best thing would be to upgrade to RTM. Beta 3 is now not supported since v1 shipped two months ago, and beta 3 itself is based on code that's about 8 months old. There were a lot of fixes made after beta 3.

Thanks. We are planning on upgrading in 3-4 weeks. I cant wait. I think most of my headaches would be fixed by using the finally product.
I think I have narrowed down the problem. It seems to hang now for some reason on the last project of the solution in the corecompile section. Eventually, Ill get the error message in the original post.
Still puzzled on why it worked since yesterday at 10:30AM till 10:00AM this morning. I asked around if anything changed. The answer was no. The event logs dont appear to have anything that points to what the problem might be.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked the settings and they havent changed. The password hasnt changed either.
We bounced our Team Foundation Server on Friday in the hope that memory would be cleared and the problem fixed. Unfortunately, it didnt help. :-(
It checks out and starts to build, but gets hung up on the last project of the last solution.
Maybe it is just the VSTS Beta 3 version that has issues. I wish I knew the work around.
Any other suggestions
Thanks,
Staffan

Thanks for your response :-)
I pinged the machine and it comes back with replies.
Extra note: Im able to check the code out manually. Im more puzzled now.
Any other suggestions or ideas

The exception you reported in your original post is a "Request timed out" httpexception. These are caused when a request takes longer than the specified executionTimeout in the config file chain... Is this the same exception you are seeing now
If so, I believe that the executionTimeout value is set to 3600 seconds (one hour) in the default TFS install, but you should verify that the value is not something smallish that might realistically cause a timeout to occur. You would want to look first in the web.config file in the build web services directory - something like "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation 2005\Web Services\Build". Probably the relevant value will not be set there - you should then check the team foundation directory, which is just one directory up. If it is not set there either, the value will be coming from your machine.config, and is probably the default value of 90 seconds, which may be small enough that it gets exceeded when your network is not behaving well.
In any case, the relevant setting will look something like this:
<
httpRuntime executionTimeout="3600" maxRequestLength="2000000" />Can you report back on the value you find for executionTimeout

Problem occurred again. I dont know why. It has been working fine for a few months. For some reason, this morning it just wont allow to be built on the machine.
Is there a bug fix for this It is like something is flagged as not being connected.
Please help since this is getting very frustrating. I dont want to have to different machines to build on.
Thanks,
staffan
