    Hi Gloridel, I am planning an upgrade from Azure DevOps Server 2020.1 to Azure DevOps Server 2022.2. Now that the Update 2 RC has been out for over one month can you provide any update on when we can expect the 2022.2 RTW (soon, few weeks, over 1 month)? Thanks

      Hi Steven, we plan to release within the next two weeks.

        I see this issue… https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Blank-page-when-accessing-Team-configura/10661411 is now closed and it states that “We have released a fix for this issue! Thank you for providing valuable feedback to help improve the product.” .. but it does not indicate how I can download the fix to test it.. can you provide that information?

        Thanks
        Steven

        Hi Gloridel, I was able to perform a test upgrade but found a issue that would prevent my upgrade.

        The issue I encountered was previouly reported in this thread...
        https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Blank-page-when-accessing-Team-configura/10661411?q=Team+configuration
        ... I think it may be releated to a custome process template which specifies a custom team field on the work-items. I have added to that thread my details.

        This issue would prevent me from proceeding with the upgrade so can you check to confirm this will be corrected before the 2022.2 RTW.

        Thanks

        Steven

      Carsten,
      sorry that you are having difficulties with Azure DevOps. Can you share specs for your machine (CPU/RAM/SSDvsHDD)?
      We saw this issue on very underpowered machines.

      To continue configuration you can execute the following command: “c:\Program Files\Azure DevOps Server 2022\Tools\TfsMgmt.exe” configure

      Thanks,
      –Vladimir

        It’s not related to server specs at all.

        Problem exists also in 2022.1
        https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Package-failed-when-upgrading-Azure-DevO/10529088?sort=newest
        It is also not related to Analytics. Workaround is uninstall and fresh install works, as “only” upgrade fails.
        Nobody is willing to properly investigate why uninstall/install is working and upgrades are failing.
