Unwanted TFS Impersonation in web service
I am attempting to have an approval system where approval can go to a web site and click a button to approve workitems, which will write their current tfs username into a field in the workitem when they click the button.
I am using windows impersonation in the web application, and I have confirmed that the windows authorized user is correct when the application is running (I'll call this user "Proper User"). Strangely, in the workitem, I get the wrong user in the approver field. The user in the approver field appears to be another user that may have previously used the system, or may currently be viewing work items through visual studio or another method (lets call her "Rogue User"). Rogue User is a different user depending on who else has been using the system. Also, when looking at the history, I see something like:
Edited (DesignReview to DesignApproved) by Proper User on behalf of Rogue User
Looking up this syntax, I see that it is supposed to mean that TFS Impersonation was used. However, I am not using TFS impersonation anywhere in my code. Here is the relevant code:
TfsTeamProjectCollection teamProjectCollection = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(new Uri("http://projecturl"));
var workItemStore = (WorkItemStore)teamProjectCollection.GetService(typeof(WorkItemStore));
WorkItem workitem = workItemStore.GetWorkItem(iworkitemid);
workitem.Fields[approverfield].Value = teamProjectCollection.AuthorizedIdentity.DisplayName;
workitem.GetNextState("action");
workitem.Save();I can confirm that the active directory user is the proper user during execution.. Any ideas why TFS would be doing this? Is there anything I need to call to ensure the authenticated user is the same as the authorized user and windows user when I am not using impersonation?
This is within a web service call. The web application is using a single worker process. Impersonation is set with
<identity impersonate="true" /><authentication mode="Windows" /><authorization><deny users="?"/></authorization>
This is within a web service call.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Any known issues with changing the Friendly Names?
We have experienced corruption of our workitem templates twice in the past month. We've made a list of changes that have occurred during that time, and at the top of the list is the fact that we used thewitadmin changefield utility to change Friendly Names of both System fields and custom fields. Does anyone know if there are any known repercussions (such as workitem template corruption) associated with changing the workitem Friendly
names? It might be a red herring, but at the moment we cannot rule it out as the cause of the corruption.

TFS DB Query Project and User
Hi
Currently I need to some statistic for our TFS 2013. I'm not an admin for TFS Server(So, I guess query by API is off the table), what I got is a read-only account for TFS DB.
So, how can I get all users for a project by purely query the database?

How to handle check-out files of users that are no longer with the company?
We have cases that files were checked out and modified, but the engineers left before they check-in the files. What's the right way to handle such cases? Does the project admin have right to check-in for the engineers? How can we make another person to
check the files in?

TFS issue after changing permission structure
Hi,
I have encountered an issue with TFS after I have moved the permissions for a team around slightly. Originally, inside my Team I had a AD group set for users permissions. I recently changed this so that instead of an AD group there is now a TFS group being used and that TFS group has an AD distribution group added to it.
Since making this change, parts of TFS is no longer working correctly for the team members. When they load the main Team page an error occurs. Although the main page starts to load it has an error with the burndown chart on the page and produces the error below:
A similar error also occurs if the user tries to click on a specific iteration on the backlog as well. I am in the project administrators group and do not get this error. All pages load fine for me.
Does anyone have any ideas why this might be occurring at all? I think I might be able to make a new team to work around this issue, but I would rather find out why this is happening in the first place and rectify it.

Restrictions in TFS plugin for Excel
Hello. I have WPF app which takes some workitems from TFS and checks values in some fields of those items. If those items are incorrect i want to write them into excel table, so i can use excel TFS plugin to publish the changes. For that i created a template
file: generated a table using plugin, choosed the columns i need and cleared rows. And i can write in any column both programmatically and manually except ID column. My program writes to this column with no exceptions, but if i open generated document i'll
see no values in it. And if i try to add ID manually i'll get error TFS84013 (I can't modify read-only field). I tried to remove lock in "Format Cells..." but it's not working, seems like it's locked by plugin, not by excel itself.
But i realy need to write to this column, so I will able to update items instead of creating new ones. Is there any way to bypass the restriction?
Thanks in advance.

get old item name for renamed files using TFS API
My current tfs will be retired in next few months.I am using tfs api to create a parallel tfs on a new server from the existing one. I have folders and solutions that have been renamed. I am iterating items and based on their changetype(add, edit, delete, sourcerename etc), I am checking them in destination tfs.
I am not able to get Old filename for a file, in order to use PendRename when the item that is being iterated is Delete|SourceRename or Rename.
I tried the mentioned solution :
But, my changeset has a lot of changes and hence identifying a particular file seems difficult.
Do we have something that interraltes two items (the deleted and renamed) ones other than the changeset, because there needs to be a uniquely identifier that associated the two items so that they may appear together in TFS history?

Undo checkout from another user local workspace
Hello
we are using TFS 2012 with default work-space option as local. I need to move couple of folder to another directory from source control as part of process and iam getting error on one of the file saying its checkedout by another user.
I tried to undo the checkout using sidekicks and command-prompt(tf undo) both showing no changes. I assume its because of local work-space feature in TFS 2012.
Any idea how can i undo these changes and able to move folders to different directories.
I do have admin access and no issues on permissions side.

Invalid change indicated on open
I posted this title to the VS install forum thinking it was a configuration issue and one of the moderators moved it over here as a TFS issue. However, it left my name off of the post and the "Reply" link, or any other link on the page, is nonresponsive, indicating a javascriptvoid(0) link name in lower left corner. The only reply from the moderator mentioned comparison of the local and server version. I have done this hundreds of times and always the two versions are identical. Yet, Visual Studio insists on adding an edit asterisk to the tab and TFS requests that I check-out the module EVEN THOUGH NOTHING HAS CHANGED! When closing the tab, it always asks me if want to save the module and since I made no change, I always reply "NO!" Closing VS and rebooting does nothing to help with this situation. WHY does your software insist that a module was changed when there was no change and even the comparison of the local and server versions confirms there was no change to the .aspx or .cs file. Additionally, it sometime requests that I check-out the license .lic file and other supporting files such as the .proj file, again when no change or modification was made.
This is very irritating and I do not know what other information I could possibly elaborate or what good any screen shots would do in describing this condition other than waste my and your time. It is not a coding issue, or anything to do with specific solution and/or project, as it occurs with all solutions, projects, and editable files that are opened in my version of VS 2012 Ultimate without ever having edited a thing.
OS-wise, I am currently using Windows 8.1 Enterprise with all the latest updates on an HP laptop with an i7-4600U CPU @ 2.10GHz and with 16GB of RAM.

Invalid change indicated on open
Whenever I open a file in Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate, (i.e., a .aspx file) just to browse its contents, VS will indicate that the file has been changed and then TFS will request to check it out when no change had occurred. Is there a configuration
setting controlling this? If so where. No one else's VS installation at our shop exhibits this quirky anomaly, just mine. How can I configure it to NOT indicate a change occurred so that I can browse the code without having to check it out?
