Team Project Creation Failed

I installed beta 3 server and connected. I then went to create the project "test3" which fails.

Here's what i get (see below).

I connected/logged in as administrator user on the team foundation server (TEAMSERVER) machine. Is this the problem Should i have logged in as tfssetup or someone else

As a side note, i can't login as anyone (i've tried all of the users - i think) into my sharepoint site on the server now.

Thanks,

Ted


Error
Insufficient permissions on the Windows SharePoint Services at http://TEAMSERVER:8080 to create a new site. 

Explanation
The permissions granted your user name and ID on the Windows SharePoint Services at http://TEAMSERVER:8080 do not allow you create a new portal site. You must be granted specific root permission by the server administrator. 

User Action
Contact the administrator for the Windows SharePoint Services at http://TEAMSERVER:8080 and ask that the permission “Administrator” be added to your user account. 

Warning
TF30144: The New Team Project Wizard attempted to roll back all of the steps taken to this point but was unsuccessful. Contact your Team Foundation Server administrator for further instructions.

Team Project Creation Failed

    I get the same error when I'm trying to reach http://myserver:8080 whereas http://myserver:8080/Services/v1.0/Registration.asmx works!

    I followed this sites info ( https://blogs.msdn.com/vstsue/articles/422773.aspx ) but since I get a permission error on the http://myserver:8080, I can't do the "To add a member to the Team Foundation Administrators group". All the rest are done.

    Any hint or clues of what it can be!


  • Metal_Fly

    I had the same problem, but I got a tip (http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=97536) that TFSSERVICE should also be in the administrator group. So far it seems to work for me.

  • Armand du Plessis

    I saw the same thing on one of my installs.. yes, the VSTSService was in the correct local group...

  • Ahmed Kuradi

    It actually must be part of the machine administrators group.  The error is that you don't have permissions to create sharepoint site.  This right is given by two ways:

    1. Machine builtin administrators
    2. Administrators group configuration via Central Administration.

    I'm having the same problem you are having.  I have installed VSTFS on a new domain controller and am using a domain admin account for the TFSSETUP account.  I installed ASP.NET/IIS after promoting the system to a DC, so that should not be a problem.  The TFSSERVICE and TFSREPORTS accounts are standard accounts.

    I tried to connect to my teamserver using port 80 (http://teamserver) to check out SharePoint services configuration.  When I do that, I get an the error:  "Server Error in '/_layouts' Application."  I then changed the web.config file in the _layouts folder for debugging using customerErrors mode="RemoteOnly".  The following access denied error is given:

    Access to the path "C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files\_layouts\fe6c8092\62d12cb5" is denied.

    Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

    Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path "C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files\_layouts\fe6c8092\62d12cb5" is denied.

    ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.

    To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.

    Unfortunately that did not help me.  I made TFSSERVICE a member of Domain Admins (since my install is on a DC using single server implementation) and I still have the failure.  I'm still told that I cannot create a SharePoint portal site:

    "The permissions granted your user name and ID on the Windows SharePoint Services at teamserver.mydomain.com
    do not allow you create a new portal site. You must be granted specific root
    permission by the server administrator."

    I'm logging into Team Explorer using TFSSETUP account that is a Domain Admin account as well.  I cannot even access http://teamserver.mydomain.com using Domain Admin credentials.
