Getting "Failed to create mapping" when adding a solution to TFS source control

Question

I've created a new Team Project in TFS, but when I try to add my solution to it I get:

'Failed to create mapping

Cannot map server path, $/Finance/MyApp, because it is not rooted beneath a team project.'

I can't find anything on google or here that looks remotely like this problem.

Answer 1

Is Finance a team project for you?

If not, you can clear the mappings for the workspace or even just delete your workspace. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/54dkh0y3(v=VS.100).aspx
