• Visual Studio Team System TF30162: Task "WITs" from Group "WorkItemTracking" failed

  This is with Beta3 on a real 2003 Standard Server SP1. Setup worked without a problem. I did change the name of the three accounts but they all work fine. I cannot create a project with a user account that's in the domain admin group. However I can create a project with the <setup> account logged on on the server directly. Thinking it's a SQL permission kinda thing, I gave the domain account all the same permissions as the <service> ...Show All

• SQL Server How to Update or Delete records with a SqlServer Destination

• SQL Server Insufficient Log Data

  The mirror database, "UOP_PIMB", has insufficient transaction log data to preserve the log backup chain of the principal database. This may happen if a log backup from the principal database has not been taken or has not been restored on the mirror database.

• Visual Studio Bug in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Package.DropDownMember.op_Equality()

  The code for this method is (according to Reflector): public static bool operator == ( DropDownMember m1, DropDownMember m2) { return m1 . Equals ( m2 ); } The problem is that mi can be null, when called from TypeAndMemberDropDownBars.GetEntryText(), GetEntryImage() and GetEntryAttributes(). The 'if ( member1 != null )' test in each of these methods ultimately ends up in DropDownMember.op_Equality(), which throws an excepti ...Show All
