TFS 2017 + Sharepoint 2013 + "Work Item" = 'Form' element cannot contain an element of type 'Unknown'

Hello everyone,

I'm having some problems when i try to add a "New work item" or when i try to "Open a work item" using the sharepoint team site. It doesn't matter the template that i use(Agile, scrum and etc), everytime i get the error 'Form' element cannot contain an element of type 'Unknown' when creating or opening a work item! It's just on the sharepoint team site, if i use the tfs web portal, then everything works, I can create and open work items and the work items created using the tfs web portal appear on the sharepoint team portal as they should, but like i said above i can't open them because of the error.

Image of the problem: http://image.prntscr.com/image/34e6b27d613d4a529cfe2c1c85b0f268.png

The environment:


Machine 1 - TFS 2017 on Windows Server 2012 R2, with MS SQL Server 2014 SP2 + Cumulative update 2(Build 12.0.5522);
Machine 2 - SharePoint 2013 SP1 (with November, 2016, cumulative update) on Windows Server 2012 R2 + TFS 2017 Sharepoint Extension Tools;
Machine 3 - MS SQL Server 2014 SP2 + Cumulative update 2(Build 12.0.5522) on Windows Server 2012 R2 (Used by SharePoint);

/\ this is an upgrade that i did a few days ago from our tfs 2015 update 3 environment, that was also an upgrade from our older tfs 2010 environment, the older tfs 2010 environment didn't have sharepoint! I installed sharepoint after i did the upgrade from TFS 2010 SP1 to TFS 2015 update 3 to test the sharepoint portal because we need to start using it! I did not have any problem with the upgrade from TFS 2010 SP1 to TFS 2015 update 3 and after to TFS 2017(no errors at all during the upgrade)!

Another small problem, is that i don't remember if this issue('Form' element cannot contain an element of type 'Unknown') was happening when i was using the sharepoint team site with TFS 2015 update 3.

Visual Studio 2013 Pro - Pending Changes comments box has vanished

As the title states, when I go to check in pending changes I usually have a box to enter comments. Suddenly, this box has disappeared and I can't get it back!

I tried resetting the computer, resetting the VS environment, starting VS in safe mode, and a couple other things. So far, no luck.

Any ideas what on earth could be the cause?

There should be a comments box around where the red square is.

TFS 2015 vstest: missing dependent assemblies

November 30, 2016, 5:00 am
$
0
0

Executing the "Visual Studio Test" Build Step in TFS 2015 does not work for me because vstest cannot find an assembly (A) that is used by the unittest-project.

"System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The file or assembly..."

The dependencies are as followows:

The Unittest-project uses class library B (which contains the stuff to be tested) and class library A (because class library B  uses class library A)

A and B are referenced as .NET references, so the unitest runner should clearly know that library A is needed.

However it does not find the library A.  But it definitely exists , otherwise the unittest or library B wouldn't even compile.

As all this is not an "exotic" scenario  I guess must be missing something fundamental ?

I'm using TFS 2015. Is there a way to modify the list of possible values of a custom field via an API?  I've looked through the REST API and I see I can retrieve information on a particular Work Item Field, but it doesn't look like I can set the list of possible values via this interface.  

Is there any way to do this?

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?

Process Configuration workitemCountLimit

Hi -

Lets say we have a complex project and it has continuous new back log flowing in and multiple teams working on it.

  1. If we have more than 1000 items in the stories board, it slows down the experience for some users who work on the board. I understand that limit  can be increased to 10000.  would anyone help me understand the impact and any pointers for better management ?( would like to have a seamless experience for users)
  2. Is there any limitation on any number of teams/security groups that can be set up on a single TFS project for optimal performance?
  3. Is there any limitation on number of workitems that can be saved in a collection for optimal performance?

Thank you in anticipation.

We moved our TFS 2010 installation to another Server and upgraded to TFS 2017. So far everything worked fine but merging branches.
In Source Control Explorer we start the process with "Branching and Merching" --> "Merge.." --> choose "Selected changesets" and on clicking next, the Changesets should be listed. Here we geht the timeout message.
If I search for Changesets with the "Find Changesets" Dialog, the search performs pretty well and lists the results as expected.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Edit: As somewhere else suggested, i tried to merge Changesets with the command line and "tf merge" command - worked fine.

Hi,

Currently i am using service account to fetch Tfs Team Project Collection details.

but now i want to do it through OAuth authorizations . I tried it using VssConnection,

but VssConnection is using different liabrary so i am not able to initialize TfsTeamProjectCollection class.

Though i am able to read the project collection using VssConnection  but it is not returning all the required field which TfsTeamProjectCollection  is returning.

Below is the code which we are using for OAuth.

  VssConnection connection1 = new VssConnection(new Uri(tfsurlNew), new VssOAuthCredential(accessToken));

 WorkItemTrackingHttpClient witClient = connection.GetClient<WorkItemTrackingHttpClient>();
List<QueryHierarchyItem> items = witClient.GetQueriesAsync(projectName).Result;

Please suggest what are the possible ways to do it.

Thanks

Hi Team,

I have configured my automation test execute as part of VNext build. I am trying to setup the test results in the dashboard.

Test automation are build using specflow (ATDD). All test scrips are in feature file.

Build is working fine and trx file is attached as well.

Once the build is executed, team is downloading the trx file and further generating the HTML report out of trx file.

I need to automate the process and need the way to access the trx file or path of the file. I want to have have batch scripts which does the automation as a VNext build Step.

Thanks in advance!!
