Radith Unit Tests and Nightly Build
Using VSTS for Developers. I have a solution with a test project for my unit tests. When I create a new build type and select the metadata file, (".vsmdi") the "Test list to run:" list is always empty. The only mention that I can find about test list says to create them within test manager. But I do not see a test manager tool within VSTS for Developers. Does anyone have some insight into getting my unit tests to run during the nightly build Thanks I still haven't heard anything. I tried manually editing the vsmdi file, but the only reference I could find online was from a previous version of TFS so it didn't completely work. It showed up in the "New Team Build Type" wizard, but running it ...Show All

Sweeps78 Some users cannot acces version control
Hi! We have a problem with some users not being able to access version controlled files. They can see all projects and they can work with Work Items and run reports. They can also see the folder structure in the Source Control Explorer but when they right-click on a folder they get a menu with the only text being "No commands availiable". Has anyone seen this or has any idea what the cause can be We are running TFS with SP1. Some of the users have upgraded to SP1 for VS2005 and some have not. The problem seems to exist regardless of client version of VS2005. I have of course checked that the users in questions belong to the group Contributors or Project Administrator and should have permissions to change (or at least see) the sou ...Show All
Rossman1012 control not bound to areapath or iteration
I have a custom field ref, with allowed values from a global ref. I display the field with a WorkItemClassificationControl, but the control is grayed out on the form and reads "control not bound to areapath or iteration." Any suggestions ++Alan WorkItemClassificationControl can be bound to either AreaPath or IterationPath, and not other non-tree fields. You can use FieldControlt o display a list of items. Here is example: <Control Type="FieldControl" FieldName="System.State" Label="&State:" LabelPosition="Left" /> Well duh! That was easy. Thanks (once again) Naren. ++Alan ...Show All
cmarshall26 Where is it placed locally?
When I bind a solution to the source control, I imagine Source Control copies the solution files to a local place. However I cant see where this is copied to... Anyone has any clue What do you mean by Base Direcotry files I found out my problem, I was not creating correctly my WorkSpace. There is another issue, though. I noticed that my Base Directory files just vanished after I added this solution to Source Control. I suppose VSTS does this automatically so that we dont get confused about the source of the files (cause now its referencing my local machine directory). I am right The directory where I TFS first used, to know what were the files to be taken to Source Control... ...Show All

MikeAtOpco AssemblyInfoTask default Versioning Flawed?
Is it just me, or isn't the notion of versioning defaulted to by the AssemblyInfoTask http://www.gotdotnet.com/codegallery/releases/viewuploads.aspx id=93d23e13-c653-4815-9e79-16107919f93e fundamentally flawed. Assuming major.max.build.revision. Everyone using this task, including Microsoft, seems to be using the strategy that the build number is specified to be DateString with a format of yymmdd, you get something like 061117 on the day of this post or the following if we accept the defaults: 1.0.061117.00 First of all, the actual number (since it gets converted to an integer) becomes 1.0.61117.0 when it gets compiled. Most importantly, if this was next year (2007) at this time, you get assemblyinfo files u ...Show All
rwerner VS 2005 IDE Create SQL Store Porcedure like 2003 IDE
I use to have an option within the 2003 IDE to generate SQL Stored Procedures, however using the new 2005 IDE and SQLDataSource I can only generate dynamic SQL stagements or refer to existing Store Procedures. Can 2005 IDE generate SQL Stored Procedures If so how I have looked through the MSDN library and How to's for this. Doug DrDrain, You won't be able to create a stored procedure from the SQLDataSource wizard in VS2005.

Woyler Build with tests fails with no indication of where
I have setup two builds on my TFS project - one to run when code is checked in that only verifies that the code will build, and one to be run automatically that will run our tests. The first build appears to work correctly, but when I run the second (from my VS) it fails. When I look at the BuildLog.txt file, I can't see any failures, and the build results in VS show red "X"s next to the "Running tests" and "Running tests for Any CPU/Debug" entries. I have looked at this post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=673795&SiteID=1 and based on that tried installing VS Test edition on the build machine, with no change in the results. I am running Team Suite on my machine. Can anyone ...Show All

warning9 Error when opening "Performance Tools" Tools Options page
I *suspect* this issue has occurred since I installed SP1. I had no errors installing SP1 and not noticed anything untoward (so much so that I was near on upgrading my other machine!). Whilst I was poking around the options I found out that my Tools Options page for 'Performance Tools' is broken - when I choose it I get "an error occurred loading this property page" instead. I do recall an error loading a package but I didn't note the GUID down and it's not prompted me since :( I'm not sure if it really was SP1 but if anyone could offer any advice on how to fix it I'd appreciate it!
