tfs2010

I originally edited a file, which did a checkout. I received a new computer, and now I want to edit the file. I don't care about the original edit. TFS reports that another user has an exclusive lock on the file. It's not actually another user, it's me, but the machine is different, so the workspace is different. I tried unlocking with the tf commandline using the following command: tf lock /lock:none /workspace:oldmachinename;domain\me /recursive $/projectname/directory /s:http:tfs:8080/tfs/project I get no errors, but when I go into Visual studio 2010 (We're using tfs 2010 as well) The files

I currently have a custom workflow activity to run an external process, after the solution has been compiled successfully, that returns an ExitCode <> 0 if the external process has failed. Once I know that the process has failed, I want to set the build status to FAIL (as you would see if code has not compiled) so I have added a SetBuildProperties activity which will set the Status property to BuildStatus.Failed but this only seems to result in giving a Partially Succeeded build when the build is finished. I have tried setting the build's compilation status to failed inside my custom activity

I'm trying to save a TFS Work Item programmatically but always get the exception: TF237124: Work Item is not ready to save Now, I understand what this is telling me - that the Work Item is missing a required field or similar - and my code is anticipating this by calling: ArrayList ValidationResult = wi.Validate(); before the save. However my ArrayList contains no elements following this call. I've tried logging in to the TFS web interface using the same credentials and creating a Work Item that way which works fine. How can I discover why my Work Item won't save? Here's my code: // get a

I've been trying to setup my build server (Team Foundation Service) to automatically download 3rd party libraries and successfully build, but I don't know how to do this. Is there a way ? Radoslav Minchev you need to enable package restore for the solution you want to build on the build machine. This is at least what I did to get NuGet to work with Team build. Here's a link about package restore and how to use it during build http://docs.nuget.org/docs/workflows/using-nuget-without-committing-packages To build upon what John Korsnes says above in his comment (because that alone wasn't enough

I am using Windows 7 and i installed TFS Server and connected to it from my VS 2010 install. It prompted me for a password so I entered the admin password. All went well, now i added myself as a user but i can't get it to ask me to login again. It is remembering (caching) the password. Hence it always logs me in as Administrator. I search the Internet and some people recommend ClearCred.exe which ships with VS SDK but it doesn't anymore ... And then checking the managed credentials in windows 7, i have also checked this and i see nothing with regards to my cached TFS password. I also tried

We are using TFS 2010 for source control and project management, and TeamCity 6.0 for performing builds and build reporting (CI and daily deployments for testers). Setting up TFS source labeling in TeamCity to match the build number was very straightforward, but I cannot find a way to link this back to TFS Build Explorer. We want link these to be able to assign bugs to particular builds through TFS for the daily tester deployment builds. I don't know if you can, at least without some heavy VSX work or direct manipulation of the database, get the TeamCity builds to show up in the TFS Build
