Consider a TFS 2010 server with "Build Service", "Build Controller" and "Build Agent" running on the same system. Things work 'most of the time', however occasionally I have to restart the 'Build Service'. Few questions: What is the Build Service?

I'm working through the creation of an initial set of user stories for a new project, and I'm using MSF Agile for the first time. I've got about 100 user stories, and I've assigned them all to areas and iterations, but the next step for me is assigning all of their Risk, Story Points, and Stack Rank values. However, I find that I'm assig...
Hi There! I'm about to go crazy with this problem! I created a new server on a virtual machine for TFS. I have created a new Build Definition, that when a solution is checked in from my local machine TFS is to build my solution using the default build process template. On the TFS machine and my local machine I have MS Office 2010 and ....
