  It seems like the installer file 2022.0.1 Patch 3 has the same File version/Product version as 2022.0.1 Patch 2 (19.205.33921.2). Can you please check? I keep track of a list of all versions (https://github.com/FokkoVeegens/AzureDevOpsServerVersions), hence I discovered this.
  Another thing that seems strange to me is the fact that you state “If you have Team Foundation Server 2018.3.2, you should install Team Foundation Server 2018.3.2 Patch 17.”. 2018.3.2 Patch 17 was released on May 17th, 2022. It seems more logical to give this a new patch number, although it’s only the agent version that needs to be updated.

    Hi! Thank you for pointing this out. I have updated the link for the Azure DevOps Server 2022.0.1 patch and the file version should be 19.205.34025.4.

  The release notes for DevOps Server 2020 Update 1.2 mentions updating some tasks via TFX. The tasks should be in Tasks_20230825.zip, howewer a link to the mentioned file is nowhere to be found.

    Hi Andrej, thank you for reporting this. You can download the zip file from Tasks_20230825.zip. I will update the release notes to include the link.

  Thank you for this support. Will this server help with AI use?

    Hi Crawford, can you share some examples of AI scenarios that you want to have in Azure DevOps Server?

  We unfortunately don’t have a test environment so this patch would be going directly into production. For 2019 1.2 Patch 5 can we first apply patch5, then test, then update the agent, test again, and then finally update the tasks? Or does everything have to be done at once for things to work correctly together?

  We decided to press forward. The Tasks_20230825.zip file contains AzureFileCopyV1.1.226.3.zip but the release notes don’t list it in the commands to run. Please advise. Thank you

    Hi Curt, thank you for bringing this to our attention. The AzureFileCopyV1.1.226.3.zip task should be updated using the tfx tool.

    I will update the docs to reflect that AzureFileCopyV1.1.226.3.zip should be updated.

  I just tried to install devops2022.0.1patch3.exe on Azure DevOps Server 2022.0.1, but it failed with the statement “This patch does not apply to Azure DevOps Server version 19.205.33122.1.”.

  I ran devops2022.0.1patch3.exe CheckInstall before, and it clearly states that the patch is not installed on this App Tier. It also does not claim that this patch would not be eligible for this App Tier. ADS is running on Windows Server 2019 Std. with SQL Server 2019 Ent., and the App Tier was upgraded a few days ago from ADS 2019.1.2 to ADS 2022.0.1.

  So what’s going wrong?
  Your help would be highly appreciated.

  Please find the output from running “devops2022.0.1patch3.exe CheckInstall” and “devops2022.0.1patch3.exe” below.

    Hi Franz, 19.205.33122.1 corresponds to Azure DevOps Server 2022 so devops2022.0.1patch3.exe is not applicable to this version of the product. You should first update to Azure DevOps Server 2022.0.1 to install devops2022.0.1patch3.exe.
    We do have a known issue if you have Azure DevOps 2022 and installed patch 4, take a look at this post from the Developer Community for details.

      Hi Gloridel, thanks a lot for your timely and helpful answer! In fact, I discovered that I’ve downloaded and installed the RTM version of ADS 2022, while I thought I had downloaded and installed 2022.0.1… 🙄. Now I’ve downloaded the correct version 2022.0.1, upgraded the RTM version and was able to successfully install devops2022.0.1patch3.exe a few minutes ago 👍😊. Thanks once more! 🤝

        Next time, you can verify your version here: https://github.com/FokkoVeegens/AzureDevOpsServerVersions. I have collected all TFS/Azure DevOps Server versions over time. Hope this helps.
