Testing and workflow capabilities keep failing.

Question

Hi,

My testing and workflows are failing.

The workflow fails for this reason.

But I have the TFS build service on the environment and the agent has the green light beside it.

The testing fails for this reason.

I had the test controller on the TFS machine and the test agent on the environment, I don't have the agent registered with the controller as its in a MTM environment.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Answer 1

Can you try manually registering the test agent to the test controller just see check if there is no connectivity/firewall issue.

Thanks,

Anuj

Answer 2

Ok, so I've done that and its online

But When I try to configure it, I still get the same error.

Answer 3

Hmm, do you see any errors in the event log either on the machine with MTM or on the machine in the environment.

Thanks,

Anuj

Answer 4

This is the only error on the MTM Machine, but it is from last Monday, the 13th, so I'm not sure if it applies.

The description for Event ID 0 from source Microsoft Test Manager cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event:

Inner exception ==>System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Team project Automated Test not found.


the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table

I got that from the event viewer. The team project is not Automated Test, it's auto_test. But Automated Test was the name of another project I think, so this error may not be relevent.

Answer 5

Hi ELSheepO,

Based on the error messages you offered above, I think that you do not configure and set up your lab environment correctly. Could you please take a look at this MSDN instruction for a detailed step-by-step information? Go: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd936084(VS.100).aspx

Thanks.

Answer 6

Are you able to tell me the error, because I've reconfigured it twice and can't seem to fix it.

Answer 7

Also, the build agents on the environments are failing with no endpoint listening. any insight?

Answer 8

Hi ELSheepO,

Could you please post here the detailed build agents failed messages.

In addition, please also take a look this blog for further information about troubleshooting errors in lab management:
