TF30177: Team Project Creation Failed (Help, Help, Help)

Question

Finally I am able to install the TFS Beta 3 succssfully. I installed sharepoint and sql server before tfs. But when I tried to create a team project. It failed. I have verified http://localhost/default.aspx works and http://localhost:4502/ works as well (sharepoint admin page)

I did notice in IIS is that sharepoint admin site uses asp.net version 1.1.4322, but team foundation server site uses asp.net version 2.0.50727.

And I have also tried to navigate to http://localhost:8080/services/v1.0/Registration.asmx and it works, but I didn't see  where WssAdminService is located.

Error Unable to connect to the Windows SharePoint Services at MSI-PA-1471

Explanation The Project Creation Wizard was not able to connect to the Windows SharePoint Services at MSI-PA-1471. The reason for the failed connection cannot be determined at this time. Because the connection failed, the wizard was not able to complete creating the Windows SharePoint Services site.

User Action Contact the administrator for the Windows SharePoint Services at MSI-PA-1471 to confirm that the server is available on the network. Also, you might find additional helpful information in the project creation log. The log shows each action taken by the wizard at the time of the failure and may include additional details about the error.

Warning TF30144: The New Team Project Wizard attempted to roll back all of the steps taken to this point but was unsuccessful. Contact your Team Foundation Server administrator for further instructions.

Answer 1

I found out what's going on! SO EXCITED NOW. It is a very simple fix.

Since I installed sharepoint twice before installing TFS, the port number is not the default 17012. I just go to IIS and change the port number of sharepoint admin site to 17012, wala, team project can be created successfully now.

I am guessing somewhere in TFS, it hardcoded sharepoint port number 17012.

Good luck to you all, :)

Answer 2

Glad you got it to work.  It isn't hardcoded per se.  We do set it to 17012, however, the site information is stored in the database, in the TFIntegration db, and the tbl_service_interfaces table
