Rahul Kulshreshtha MscIT Warning: Don't use "I'm a friendly name <some-email@somewhere.com>" for the notification email
Wanted to share something. I used: Team Foundation Server on OURSERVER <no-reply@domain.com> For the email address (as I hate getting emails with no good name). The setup halted with the web service error (28100)... The setup program shoved the characters < and > literally into the xml web.config file. Modifying the web.config for the /services app and removing them fixed the error and allowed the setup to complete. Cheers! -Sean ...Show All
hiwiller Create a Test List in VSTE For Dev
I am trying to set up a build type in Team Foundation Server that runs a set of unit tests as part of the build process. However all the docs I see reference features I can't find. I suspect they are part of TE for Testers, which I don't have. How can someone who does not have Team Suite, or Team Edition for Testers create a build type that can run unit tests Wow, this is an amazingly bad idea. Who do they thi ...Show All
donnie100 beta2 disapointing - beta1 was more stable !
Beta2 is pretty disapointing. I have been using beta1 since it was dropped and really enjoyed its stability (impressive for a beta1) while developping win forms apps in VB. Ok, a few crashes, few bugs (like Controls renaming) but it was fine. Beta2 is another story. To avoid incompatibility issues, I recreated from scratch all my apps (including datasets and UIs) and only copy/pasted the code I had written with beta1. In 4 days using Beta2, I ha ...Show All
corel-DII MS Project Integration and Assigned To Field
Can I change the binding for a work item in Team Explorer as it seems to be bound to the Active Directory Display Name which has the format of 'Surname, Firstname'. This is a problem when imported into Project as it defines a task as having 2 resources, one for the surname and one for the firstname which also effects the actual task time and therefore cannot be published back to TFS. Thanks for that Nathan. Fou ...Show All
ironhead.chuang VSS Converter error
I've installed Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite and tried to migrate a VSS database to TFS but get message that VSS 2005 is not installed. I thought VSS was supposed to come with Team Suite If I recall correctly, the VSTS sku includes VSS, but it is not part of the default install package. If you do custom install and include VSS (or do a full install), that should do the trick (you can also run change/remove on ...Show All
Curt Carpenter How to extract list of changed files
Hi Is it possible to obtain a list of files that have changed between two labels or changesets The history view does show the list of changeset, is there perhaps a way to drill down across the list of changesets Thanks Rivaaj, I don't believe there is a way to do it from the GUI, but the following command line command will give you what you're looking for.

stronghold TFS says KB913393 is not installed when it is
Hi, I am trying to install TFS on a single server running Windows 2003 R2. Setup reports that ASP.NET 2.0 QFE KB913393 needs to be installed.

I then see a Licence Agreement screen followed by a progress bar as something is installed. However, I don't see any ...Show All

If I try to get these particular files through Source Control Explorer, it shows a messa ...Show All
