writely documentSo my buddy Shannon Atkinson and I sat down over at his place and
decided to take a solid whack at getting Team Foundation Server
Workgroup setup and try to get a project started in it. We have all
sorts of kickin ideas so it's a good start.
Installation
guide available for download. A quick note about needing to
install
the Team Explorer to gain/receive Team Foundation Server functionality.
However,
during the installation there where several errors. After a quick grok
of the old trusty google Shannon found quick solutions to both issues.
Mostly more of a RTFM than any particular real issue.
The first real error was a "
Could not list of fields to localize from the database" which after a grok pulled up a quick answer over at the
ToDotNet Blog. The second problem came up with just some arbritrary error which again was groked and answers probided via
Paul Hacker's Blog "Error 28100.Error loading Event web service".
Software Needed:
Sharepoint
Services
SQL Server 2005 After
installing these two products (we installed SQL Server 2005 Development
Server since this is primarily an experiment) we headed down the path
of the Foundation Server. Everything went smooth after ironing out all
these little bugs and finally we where able to test the product. I
connected once via wireless on my development platform and then an
error was thrown referring that SQL Server Reporting Services had
tossed an error. So at this point we are headed back to the drawing board
to figure out what is up.
More to come later...
