Although the number of people affected is modest, the severity of the issue is bad enough that we decided to re-release all TFS images so that the upgrade fix is automatically included and no one who downloads new images will get &ldquo;bitten&rdquo; by missing the step to install the patch.\n<strong>Today, we have released the new TFS media.<\/strong>&nbsp; As of today if you download TFS from <a href=\"http:\/\/msdn.microsoft.com\/subscriptions\/downloads\">MSDN subscriber downloads<\/a>, the <a href=\"http:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?LinkID=186901\">TFS trial from microsoft.com<\/a> or order TFS through a reseller, you will get the updated TFS installation media, the fix will be automatically included and you need not worry further about it.&nbsp; If you&rsquo;ve already download TFS media, I recommend you discard it and re-download the updated media.&nbsp; Our volume licensing download site is the only place that has not yet been updated but we are expecting the updates there on August 10th (only 5 days from now).\nTo assure yourself that you have the updated media, you can check for the following files on the media:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&lt;dvd&gt;\\tfs-x86\\wcu\\kb2135068 <\/li>\n<li>&lt;dvd&gt;\\tfs-x64\\wcu\\kb2135068 <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If they are there, then you have the new media.\nIf you&rsquo;ve already installed TFS and think the fix is installed, you can make certain by looking at the following file on an installed TFS server:\n%program files%\\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2010\\Tools\\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Admin.dll\nRight click on it using Windows Explorer and choose Properties&hellip;&nbsp;&nbsp; Look on the &ldquo;Details&rdquo; tab.&nbsp; If the Product Version is 10.0.30319.317 (or later), KB2135068 is installed.&nbsp; If the version is older (e.g. &lsquo;original&rsquo; RTM is 10.0.30319.1), KB2135068 is NOT installed.&nbsp; Because of the way TFS servicing works &ndash; all patches are cumulative (they include previous patches), there&rsquo;s no simple single patch to look for.&nbsp; Any patch after the upgrade QFE was released will include the fix and that&rsquo;s why you are looking for any version # greater than or equal to 10.0.30319.317.\nThis re-release of the TFS media DOES NOT include the <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/b\/bharry\/archive\/2010\/07\/27\/tfs-2010-updates-coming-to-a-download-site-near-you.aspx\">TFS rollup QFE<\/a> or the <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.msdn.com\/b\/bharry\/archive\/2010\/08\/04\/lab-management-news.aspx\">Lab Management Update<\/a> that I&rsquo;ve talked about recently.&nbsp; You can install either or both with the upgrade fix.&nbsp; Remember TFS servicing is cumulative: The Lab Management Update includes the TFS rollup QFE and the TFS rollup QFE contains the upgrade fix.&nbsp; Our installation logic is smart enough that you can just install the &ldquo;biggest&rdquo; one or you can install any combination and the result will always be what you want.\nI want to apologize again for the troubles that this upgrade issue has caused.&nbsp; We take the integrity and simplicity of TFS upgrades very seriously and are disappointed to have allowed this issue to leak out.&nbsp; With the update of the media to include the fix, we hope that soon no further customers will be affected by the issue.&nbsp; Please let me know if I can help you in any way.<\/p>\n<p>Brian<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about a moderately rare problem with upgrading from TFS 2005\/2008 to TFS 20010.&nbsp;
