Two entries found in TFS DB for one user, how do I know which one to remvoe?

$
0
0

We had issue with an account that TFS reported to there are multiple users with the same display name. I searched the database and found two entries with the same 'displayname'.

First weird thing is that the account names are only different in some letters with or without capital (exactly "SIvakhno" and "sivakhno"), I thought TFS (and Microsoft) is not capital sensitive, right? Why does it consider the two accounts are different?

My next question is, if I want to remove one to solve the 'multiple user' issue, which entry should I remove from the database? They have different 'Sid', 'Id', 'AccountName' (as above), 'UniqueUserId' (1 and 0, respectively), 'LastSync', 'SequenceId', all the other fileds are the same in the table.

Thanks


Should I Exclude references to the bin\..project..dll in TFS or Visual Studio ONline Builds?

$

One of our customers uses Visual Studio Online which is based on capabilities of Team Foundation Server (TFS)

We were researching how to do automated Builds and automated Unit Tests using the Visual Studio Online hosted build agent.

We are trying to build one of our Web Applications on it.

Our Web Application solution contains a number of csproj files under the solution.

Note: The Web Applications will build properly and run properly on our local development computers using Visual Studio 2012.

However, when we build the web application on the Visual Studio Online's Hosted Build Agent, it throws the following error about not finding the my application's main dll( my application is called BlahBlah ):

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\ VisualStudio\v11.0\WebApplications\Microsoft.WebApplication.targets (182): Could not copy the file "bin\BlahBlah.dll" because it was not found. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\WebApplications\Microsoft.WebApplication.targets (182): Could not copy the file "bin\BlahBlah.pdb" because it was not found.

Therefore, I checked the various csproj files within our Web Application solutions, and I found the following code:

<ContentInclude="bin\BlahBlah.dll"/><ContentInclude="bin\BlahBlah.pdb"/>

In order to make it run properly on the Visual Studio Online's Hosted Build Agent, the above references were replaced by the following:

<ContentInclude="bin\BlahBlah.dll"Condition="$(IsDesktopBuild) == true"/><ContentInclude="bin\BlahBlah.pdb"Condition="$(IsDesktopBuild) == true"/><NoneInclude="bin\BlahBlah.dll"Condition="$(IsDesktopBuild) != true"/><NoneInclude="bin\BlahBlah.pdb"Condition="$(IsDesktopBuild) != true"/>

After replacing the references, our application would build properly on the Visual Studio Online's Hosted Build Agent.

However, Should I Exclude references to the bin..project..dll in TFS or Visual Studio ONline Builds? In other words, is my above successful build a "False Pass" ?

I am having the worst time with my visual studio online source control.  I recently deleted all files and changed my local workspace so that I could download a specific test website deployed azure.  

When I open the website and try to build I get .  These files did exist when I last checked in the solution but didn't download to my local workspace.  Or I added them back and checked them in and they did download to my local workspace and VS2013 has a problem resolving the file relations.

I have never had such problems with visual studio online  (TFS), this is very frustrating.

Please help.

Does Visual Studio Online support filtering Product Backlog/Sprint Views and Kanban by Area?

$
0

There seems to be guidance out there now that suggests using one Master Team Project (with Areas and Iterations for partitioning) for everything rather than a Team Project per Application/Solution as the 'out of the box' product sort of steers you towards.

If this guidance is valid, and I've heard that Microsoft use this approach internal, then is it possible to follow this guidance when using Visual Studio Online?

I ask because it appears that in order to follow the 'Master Team Project' approach you need to be able to filter various elements of the TFS UI by Area and Iteration in order to allow a discrete view of just the material relating to one 'logical' application, team, etc.

Whilst I see how on-premise TFS can do some of this, I can't see any obvious way to do this with Visual Studio Online - and I'm new to that particular product so accept I may have missed something.

So my question is, can you follow the 'Master Team Project' approach if using Visual Studio Online and if so could someone steer me in the right direction please?

Thanks

What causes TF400019 InvalidPendingChangeTableException?

I am the TFS administrator, and one of the developers on our team started getting the following error message:

TF400019: The pending changes table for the local workspace MACHINE-NAME;Person name could not be opened. Exception of type 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Client.InvalidPendingChangeTableException' was thrown.

She is using a local workspace and had a project open that she was looking at, but was not doing a check-in, check-out, get-latest or any other TFS command when this error started popping up.  She closed Visual Studio, rebooted, and the error still occurs from the very moment she attempts to connect to TFS.  While eventually she deleted and recreated her workspace (and lost her checkouts by doing so), we are trying to figure out how this happened.  There is very little information out there about thisexception.  Can anyone tell me what might cause this exception?  If she accidentally deleted the "tf$" folder, would that do it? (She says she did not, but just trying to cover all the bases.)  Essentially, I was hoping to come up with a way to reproduce this error so that we can try to prevent it in future.

Thank you for any advice you can provide.

I have a problem with adding of new accounts into Team Foundation Server 2010. I can add a new domain account into group Contributors of my team project without problems but after that I can't see it in the list of available accounts, for example, in the drop down list 'Assigned To' at a work item page.
The added user can see the project, do check-in and check-out but he can't get access to the project work items. He has got an error

TF201072: A user or group could not be found. Verify that the users and groups used in your work item type definition have been added to Team Foundation Server.

Can anybody help me?

TFS database backup job failed with error

$

I get the following error on my TFS server and after I "fix it" it reoccurs every week (only on TFS Configuration database).  I am using TFS 2013 with the included version of SQL Server 2012 (installed version is 11.0.5058.0 / SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2).  I found some time ago that the recommended solution was to switch the Recovery Model in SQL Server from "Full" to "Simple" and <Save>, then switch it back from "Simple" to "Full" and <Save>, and then  rerun the backup.  This does work, the backup runs fine afterwards.  However, I have Nightly Full Backups selected under Schedules in TFS Console (they run every night at 2:00 AM) and everything works for about 5 days or so and then I get the same error.  Once the error occurs it continues to occur until I redo the "fix".  Needless to say this is very inconvenient.

Based on search this error has been occurring with other versions of TFS/SQL Server for years.  Can this be fixed permanently or is the TFS Backup facility just not a reliable option for backups?

I was recently assigned as TFS Admin for our TFS 2013 server. I have no experience with TFS so this will be a newbie question.

Our contributors are getting the error: "TF30042: The database is full. Contact your Team Foundation Server administrator." I have searched the web for fixes but they all involved SQL and older versions of TFS. However, our databases may not be network-accessible. Is there any way I can fix this problem using our web interface? Thanks for any advice.

How to create/add my new solution/project to Source Control at VS Online?

$

Hi, I'm using VS2012.  I'm logged into VS online and can open the Team Explorer in VS2012. The frustrating thing is how do I add a new solution to source control?  I click on the Solution Explorer, Right click on the solution, Select "Add solution to Source Control".  The a pop up dialog shows up with 3 of my Solution/projects that are there.  

The problem is i don't want to put this new solution under any of the 3 solutions currently in Source Control in VS Online.  I want this to be a new solution/project to be saved in the source control form the root.  If I click on the Advanced button, edit the "Source Control Folder" path to "$/MyNewSolutionName", I then get an error message saying root folder is reserved only for team project.  How can I get a new solution/project to the source control?  I've done it before but it seemed to have changed.

Okay, In Source Control Explorer, I select the root, xxxx.visualstudio.com\DefaultCollection.  I then select VS "File" menu and in the drop down I selected "New" and then "Team Project".  It takes me to a browser and lands at VS online.  I then type in the new team project name.  Everything is good so far.  I now returns to my VS on my local PC, I right click either the solution or the project in that solution, select "Add solution to Source Control". The "Add Solution... " dialog then pops up.  I selected newly created Team Project, leave everything else in default and select OK and now I get a different error message saying "Fail to create mapping, cannot map server path, $/TeamProject/projectname, becuase it is not rooted beneath a team project. 

How can I fix this and just get my source into the source  control?  Thank you.



Thank you.
