Addressing some TFS 2010 client connectivity issues

April 29, 2010 Apr 29, 2010 04/29/10
Brian Harry
We've seen some reports of client connectivity problems when people upgrade a previous version of TFS to TFS 2010 and configure it to you the same URL.  This is the result of some stale client cache info.  Bryan Krieger has written a post on recognizing and fixing the issues.  Check it out here: http://blogs.msdn.com/bkrieger/...

I've seen a few questions lately about configuring TFS with MOSS.  The official MSDN documentation isn't quite ready yet.  In the mean time, Jon has written a blog post describing the steps necessary to configure it. http://blogs.msdn.com/team_foundation/archive/2010/03/06/configuring-sharepoint-server-2010-beta-for-dashboard-...

Office 2003 -> TFS integration breaks when you install VS 2010

April 26, 2010 Apr 26, 2010 04/26/10
Brian Harry
When we were planning the requirements for TFS 2010, we decided to take a dependency on Office 2007 and later.  This enabled us to make some significant improvements to the TFS integration due to extensibility improvements in Office 2007.  However, I've seen a few customers who are stuck on Office 2003 and have been disappointed to ...

Well, kinda.  I'm actually at work :) But I made it back to North Carolina finally this morning.  It was another delay packed trip with about 11 hours of waiting in the Moscow airport and another 7 hours of waiting in New York (due to the missed connection caused by the Moscow waiting).  Another night of lost sleep but I'm ...

Early read on TFS 2010 installs

April 19, 2010 Apr 19, 2010 04/19/10
Brian Harry
I've written quite a bit about how hard we worked in this release to improve the TFS installation process.  All through the pre-release process we tracked success rates and issues using telemetry.  In every release (beta, ctp, rc, etc), we tried to learn and get better.  Once we RTM'd that telemetry became "opt in" rather than "...

After two canceled flights and countless hours of waiting over the weekend, I have, sadly, decided to throw in the towel on the rest of this trip.  I lost out on going to Croatia and it was not looking good to get to Prague.  Today, they closed Bulgarian airspace.  After already having two 36 hour runs of being awake this week ...
