How did we get a tfs user name mangled with :1 ?

$
0
0

While trying to undo checkouts and remove unused workspaces we found that one user had a :1 after their name. The only way to see this was using the TFS Sidekick tool.

When listing the workspaces and within source control we would see "First  Last". But when we went into TFS Sidekick we saw workspaces and files checked out for the same user but with two different naming syntax's.

Domain\UserName

Domain\UserName:1

It seems that this behavior only affected a single user but we would like to understand how this happened and how to resolve without having to use TFS Sidekick tool.

In the end we were able to use tf.exe to accomplish the workspace removal and undo checkouts by using the UserName:1 syntax.

Remaining work does not automatically reduces to zero, once an action is done (for a new work item type)

We have added a new work item type to the sprint backlog. However once we move this item to 'done' the field 'remaining work' does not automatically reduces to zero.

Does someone know you we should solve this?

Thanks in advance!

VS 2010 / TFS 2015 - Can connect to new TFS server, but some collections not available in Visual Studio

$
0
0

I am in the processing of migrating TFS (2010 -> 2015) to a new server (Windows Server 2008 r2 -> 2012).  I moved 3 collections (2 test and 1 inactive) over to the new server and can see them all in Team Foundation Server Administration Console on the server.  Every collection shows the expected team projects.  In VS 2010, I successfully added the new Team Foundation Server.  However, one of the collections I added does not appear in the list of Team Project Collections.  I used the exact same process when migrating the collections and I don't see any obvious differences in the settings between collections.  The next step I need to take is to migrate the active collections to the new server, but am nervous that the same problem could occur with these collections.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Hello,

I have been trying to upload my project, but I am unable to fully upload it to my repository, and the connection (Socket) gets closed after some progress. I have a few possible hypothesis:

1) My ISP is blocking some IP range that belongs to Microsoft servers

2) My ISP is randomly blocking ports such as 80 which keeps me from accessing certain services temporarily

3) My ISP is throttling the upload rate so whenever it reaches a certain amount of data, then the connection gets a Tcp reset packet which closes that Socket.

4) This last one is very unlikely since I can test speed as well as can access websites almost instantneously without any compromise or delay. However, it could be a Ddos or Dos, but by checking my logs and the symptons I think this is very unlikely, otherwise it would compromise my whole experience navigating on the internet.

The issue is very punctual since it also happens when I try to login to the TFS web interface service, and it is random.

I highly believe this is some kind of block (Port, Protocol or URL) considering the last point I mentioned, but it could be that the ISP is also throttling my upload experience.

Considering the very particular nature of this issue that I am facing, I wonder if there is any workaround for this, I quickly checked some of the registry entries of the TFS in order to figure out if I could change anything to fix this, but nothing worked. Is there anyway/plugin to keep the TFS service persistent while uploading to my repo or something of this sort?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Greetings to everyone!

I'm trying to access Git (on TFS) repository programmaticaly throught TFS API using following code:

GitRepositoryService grs = GetDefaultTeamProjectCollection().GetService<GitRepositoryService>();
            var a = grs.QueryRepositories("KdlTest");

But I get error while quering repository:

Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.WebApi.VssResourceNotFoundException: API resource location 225f7195-f9c7-4d14-ab28-a83f7ff77e1f is not registered onhttp://tfs.someurl.com:8080/tfs

TFS version is 2015. Git repository exists and developers are using it through VS. Connection to Team Project Collection goes fine.

I tried to find info about this error, but no luck :( Maybe some components are missing on my TFS, but I dont know which of them.

I even don't know what is "TFS API resouce".

Two Build Definitions (Same Branch)

$
0
0

I have two build definitions (D1 & D2) pointing to the same branch (B).

D1 is set to Gated and D2 is set to CI.

When the gated build succeeds, we want the CI build to start (but we don't want the CI build to start if the gated build fails).

The D1 checkin comments are being appended with ***NO_CI***, which is what I thought was preventing the CI builds from starting.

I followed this post (http://donovanbrown.com/post/How-to-have-CI-builds-run-after-a-Gated-Build) to add a DisableCI option to the D1 definition and set its value to "false."

Should this allow the CI (D2) build to start when the Gated one succeeds?

Any clarification would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I have shared my Azure portal with another user, but when he attempts to access the Azure database from Visual Studio he cannot get access. He has access to the repositories online, but cannot use the database. Is there something we are missing?

Hi Team,

We are a team,  using the Microsoft Team Foundation Service(TFS 2015) for maintaining ourSource Code, Builds & Deployment.

We recently Configured the email alerts  in the TFS 2015 for sending the mail alerts in case of any event like Build complete, code review , code check-in etc.

Our TFS is hosted in an Amazon web Services (AWS).

Issue (Email Alerts Not working):

The email alerts are not working when any of the above mentioned events Occurs(Code check-in, Work item creation, Code review etc) . But when we try to test it by giving aTest Email(Send Test email), it works . We are able to receive the email. We checked the eventvwr , so after any of the event occurs  it throws an exception message

Detailed Message: TF271001: An error occurred while attempting to send an e-mail notification to the following address: yyyy@example.com. Further e-mail notification errors that occur within the next five minutes might not be logged. Verify that the e-mail notification settings are correct in the Team Foundation Administration Console. Exception Message: Failure sending mail. (type SmtpException

Conclusion:

We are currently blocked because of the above issue of getting email alerts . Any suggestion or Resolution steps on the above issue is really appreciated.

Remove TFVC repository

This question was asked but improperly answered here: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/c1978483-0c77-40d9-8de7-b5a89aa74ced/delete-tfvc-repository?forum=tfsgeneral

The original question was around how to delete the entire TFVC repository so that the option to even access that repository would be gone.  In the image of that post, what's left would just be the Git repository after deletion as if you never selected TFVC as the base repo for the project.

Is this possible or are we stuck with creating a new project collection to get rid of it?

Hi,

We have an extension which handle automatic workitem association for merged changeset, that I try to convert to TFS 2017.

It is implemented as an ISubscriber implementation, for CheckinNotification type.

I was able to build our library and referencing the new libraries, but after copying the dll into App Tiers\Web Services\Plugins folder, the ISubscriber implementation does not seems to be called.

Is this development model still supported on TFS 2017 ?

TFS 2015 (Web) - Code Explorer - File Contents Not Loading

$

0

Over the weekend, we did an in-place upgrade of our TFS 2013 environment to TFS 2015 (Update 3)


Everything went well, but this morning I noticed that if I logged into our TFS website and opened any project collection and went to the CODE section, and then navigated to any file it wasn't showing the contents of that file.  This was with Firefox (PC) version 50.0.2 as well as Chrome (PC) version 54.0.2840.99 m.  (This is a PC running Windows 10 Education 64-bit, version 1607, build 14393.447)  I also tried on my MacBook with Safari; same problem.

If I use Internet Explorer (or Microsoft Edge), the contents appear normally, so this isn't a permissions issue.

This was working fine in TFS 2013.  Any ideas here?

Pull Requests - Unapprove Request if Branch Changes

$

Hello,

I have been searching around for an answer to this, but have not been able to find one.

So, in Team Foundation Server, we are using Git on TFS and utilizing pull requests as the code review mechanism. If a pull request is approved it is possible to make another commit and complete the pull request without the new changes being code reviewed.

Is there a way to remove a pull request approval if the source branch changes/other commits are made?

Thanks

After upgrading TFS to version 2015 users that are on Visual Studio 2008 get the following error when opening it.

Team Foundation Error - Specified Method is not supported.

Also when you attempt to check in changed items into source control and you want to associate work items it just keeps sprinning saying requesting work item queries, it never populates with anything.  I'm also unable to view builds in the Team explorer using 2008 connected to tfs2015.  Also in Visual Studio if I click on Build -> Queue new build from the menu I get the error, Team Foundation Error, Specified method is not supported.

Thanks,

tfs 2010 add(merge) to new folder

$
0

In TFS 2010, one of my coworkers placed some ssrs reports in a folder called development. Now I want to move(merge) the code to the test folder level that is called 'test'. When I try to merge the ssrs reports into the now empty folders called 'test', I can not merge. There is no option displayed to select where to merge the folders to. Basically there is nothing in the 'target branch' for me to select from.

Thus there are other options I see that could possibly be used like 'branch'? However I am not certain what option I could use. In the 'test' folder level, would I need to 'add' items to the 'test' level folder?

Thus would you tell me what I can do to 'merge' the code from the 'development' folder to the higher level called the 'test folders?
