I want to connect to multiple TFS server from Visual Studio 2010 team explorer. Say I have connect to TFSServer01 and selected projects P1 and P2. I would also like to connect to another server TFSServer02 and select a project P3. But doing this in team explorer is not possible. It forcibly closes the first connection. This is the scena...
Using TFS 2010. I have created a number of new Build Definitions. I also created new folder within the TeamBuildTypes folder locally and checked into TFS. I fired up a Build and see the TFS Workspace creates the folder (on TFS), but is missing the TeamBuildTypes folder. This folder is not created. I am not sure why. Can anyone help...
Hi, I'm testing out the backup and restore of TFS, before migrating to it for our source control. Problem is, I'm getting confused with restore part of the msdn documentation. In particular, the part where we are required to update the service accounts (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252458.aspx#UpdateAccounts). You mus...
I am experiencing an issue working with a database project in Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate with TFS. The following describes the work flow that I use: I work locally modifying a SQL schema via SQL Server Management Studio.

I'm working on a Visual Studio 2010 add-in, and I'm trying to figure out how to determine the currently connected TFS server. I'm guessing I need to use DTE, but I'm having a brain cramp figuring out where to get the info. Any help is, of course, appreciated. EDIT: Actually, I may have found the answer, which I culled from a couple p...

We are considering purchasing TFS 2010, and don't have an MSDN Subscription as of now. Consider two scenarios 1 - Purchasing MSDN Subscription. 2 - Purchasing TFS outside MSDN In both scenarios, how many number of CALs are available, and how many we need to purchase more? What will be the cost involved? Assume that we need to support a...
Hello everyone, my question is kinda simple but i just don't know how to get it. I have this dedicated server at home, used almost just for Team Foundation Server, I did the single server configuration wizard so I have Sharepoint Services running along with SQL Server and IIS 7.5, the problem is that every single link and URL on the sha...
Are there any visual tools for the TFS2010 Build engine? I just don't need to know WorkFlowright right now. It would be nice to just pickup a tool and make my custom builds rather than digging into WorkFlow, then into TFS 2010's way of using WorkFlow. ...
Hi, I just moved my code from subversion to TFS. When I get latest version, I understand that I can't get write permissions. However, when I check out and choose the option to take the exclusive lock, a check mark appears next to my files and I am able to edit them. When I look in Windows explorer, however, some files are still marke...
When I import a Work Item Type from Team Review, I get this error: TF218007: Cannot import the work item type. It changes fields in team projects in which you do not have permissions to make changes. Correct this problem by changing the definition of the work item type so that it does not change the name or reporting behavior of these f...
We currently have an application that is in two peices. One is a c++ solution that complies down to a com assembly. The other solution is our .net app that refrences the com assembly. We've had a rather unstructured process for building the com assebly and distributing it to the developers working on the .net side. I'd like to streaml...

I have a unique combination of platforms in my solution that has stumped me. We need to generate code coverage statistics for unit tests that we're writing for our Windows CE code. We're using Visual Studio 2008 to write the CE code, of course, because VS 2010 doesn't support smart devices. Unfortunately, MSTest won't instrument CE ass...
I installed TFS on Windows 7 and added TFS users as Windows users. Everything works fine. However, now every time Windows 7 starts, I can see all those TFS users on my startup screen, and I need to select my own user icon to enter my desktop. Can I do something so that those TFS users would not be displayed at Windows startup? ...
Hi, I installed TFS 2010 on Windows 7. In the TFS users list (when creating a new work item) I can see not only real TFS users, but also the "LOCAL SERVICE" user - which I surely would not like to appear in the list. What can be done about that? How can this user be removed? Thank you. ...
We recently migrated to TFS 2010, and have created a new Team Project. (The old one was created in 2005, and seems to be missing key metadata to allow full functionality in 2010). We've copied all our source, and have figured out how to copy our work items to the new team project, but we can't figure out how to migrate our build defini...
We branch for each new feature that is developed on a web product, so in TFS 2010 the folder structure looks something like this... $/Product/Mainline/... $/Product/Branches/... $/Product/Releases/... $/Product/Merged Branches/... Mainline folder only ever has the 1 solution under it that is the 'trunk'. Branches contains branches of ...
We use Codesmith to generate some code, and when we open up the projects, the files are there, in the solution, but there is no way to check them in. The DLL compiles just fine. The only difference to the .csproj is the addition of any new files we generated. But unlike VSS, TFS, does not detect these files. I validated this behavi...
Hi, Has anyone tried to integrate Tibco Designer especially for BusinessWorks with Team Foundation Server 2010? At the moment, our Tibco designer is using VSS as its source safe control. We are planning to migrate the VSS to TFS 2010 but I could not find a solution to integrate Tibco Designer with the TFS 2010. Any help is appreciated....
