I recently created a PlasticSCM account and I am in the step of creating a new distributed Plastic Cloud repository. However, whenever I tried to create it, I encounter the following errors
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8084
Window that appears when I tried to create the distributed repository
What can I do to proceed on this? Thanks!
I got this same issue in Unity when I tried to remove the Organization name from the autofilled Repository name.
The Repository Name field defaulted to:
Project#OrganizationName#cloud
I changed it to: PROJECT. That's when I got the error message
Updating only the project name and leaving the original autofilled part with "OrganizationName" and "cloud" solved the problem for me: New-Project-Name#OrganizationName#cloud
By default, any changes to the Repository Field also updates the Workspace Name.
Found some information later: UNITY PLASTIC SCM Setup Guide under "Create a workspace and repo" (hidden in navigation further down the page)
I was trying to map workspace, due to some issue I have canceled the process and deleted the entry from Manage Workspace.
But when I retried the process, I am getting below error
"The workspace [workspaceName];[Owner] already exists on computer [ComputerName]"
I have tried below things to resolve it
1) using VS Command prompt
First display list of workspaces for named computer giving workspace name and owner:
>tf workspaces /computer:oldComputerName /collection:”http://devsrvr:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection”
To delete:
>tf workspace /delete WorkSpaceName;OwnerName /collection:”http://devsrvr:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection”
But listing command is not showing any workspace. so this option dosen't help me.
I got the help reference form here
2) Tried Repair Local Visual Studio TFS Workspace Mapping by clearing cache data from %localappdata%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\5.0\Cache. This option also didn't work for me. I am still getting same error. Reference
3) Checked Control Panel >> User Account >> Mange Password for deleted the enetries (It is used to work with older VS version). But this also didn't work.
Please let me know if any one know the resolution.
You may try the items below:
Close VS.
Removes the specified workspace entry with the command line: tf workspaces /remove:(*|workspace1[,workspace2,...]) /collection:(*|TeamProjectCollectionUrl)
Delete the workspace with command tf workspace /delete [/collection:TeamProjectCollectionUrl] workspacename[;workspaceowner] [/login:username,[password]]
Create a workspace with new name and then retry deleting the old workspace.
I have a working Jenkins TFS setup, but can't figure out how to stop the Jenkins TFS plugin from deleting the whole workspace and downloading it again each time.
I just want it to do the equivalent of "Get Latest" and not delete any files that are up to date.
Here is the message I'm getting in the console when this happens:
Deleting workspace as the configuration has changed since a build was performed on this computer.
I can't figure out what is causing this or how to disable this behavior.
This doesn't always happen when I build the project, so something is causing this to happen.
It can happen even if I don't change any configuration stuff in Jenkins.
Option to "Delete workspace before build starts" option is off.
I have found the message in the Java source for the TFS plugin here, but
don't understand what is causing it: Java TFS Plugin in GitHub
Environment:
Jenkins v2.60.3
TFS plugin 5.121.0
Windows 10 64-bit
Java 1.8
Console log when this happens:
Building on master in workspace D:\Jenkins\workspace\XXX
Deleting workspace as the configuration has changed since a build was performed on this computer.
Downloading list of workspaces from https://tfs.company.com/tfs/Projects...
Deleting workspaces named 'MASTER-XXX' from computer 'ALAN-XXX'...

In your Jenkins Project configure Page ,there is an option for deleting workspace before build starts in Build Environment section. Double check if you are checking this option or not.
The plugin checks the latest build configuration and compare it with the current job. If there is any difference/change exist, you will see that message. The configuration it checks is the settings in "Source Code Management". Since you mentioned that it also occurs when you didn't do any change, I suspect that it may caused by some variables you used in "Workspace name" changed. You can also check and compare the "build.xml" for the two builds in Jenkins Jobs folder to see what change cause the issue you meet.
I have a build job in Jenkins, which is based on a git project.
Looking at the changes page for each build, I can see the commits that are new to this version, who contributed them, and the list of files modified.
What I'm missing is the option to see the actual diff - what lines of code were changed.
How can this be achieved?
I'm using a local git repo hosted on the same PC as the jenkins server
You can use Last Changes Plugin to accomplish that.
Just install it and make sure to choose from Post-build Actions drop down menu the option Publish Last Changes.
When creating a new build in Team Foundation Server, I get the following error when attempting to run the new build:
The path
C:\Build\ProductReleases\FullBuildv5.4.2x\Sources
is already mapped to workspace
BuildServer_23.
I am unable to see a workspace by that name in the workspaces dialog.
Use the command line utility TF - Team Foundation Version Control Tool (tf).
You can get a list of all workspaces by bringing up a Visual Studio Command Prompt then changing to your workspace folder and issuing the following commands:
C:\YourWorkspaceFolder>tf workspaces /owner:*
You should see your problem workspace in the list as well as it's owner.
You can delete the workspace with the following command:
C:\YourWorkspaceFolder>tf workspace /delete /server:BUILDSERVER WORKSPACENAME;OWNERNAME
Just delete the contents of the following folder(s):
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\3.0\Cache
Where UserName is actual or current user, and 3.0 is the version number.
I had a similar issue and to remove the workspace that was causing me a problem, I logged into another machine with TFS client installed and performed the following:
On the File menu, point to Source Control, Advanced, and then click
Workspaces....
In the Manage Workspaces dialog box, tick the Show remote packages checkbox.
Under the Name column, select the workspace that you want to remove, and then click Remove.
In
the Confirmation dialog box, click OK.
I received this error, which was caused by having two build definitions that pointed to the same source. The issue was that I used a static build directory in the Build Agent.
This forum post describes my issue and resolution exactly:

We had the same problem but deleting the workspace's from the TFS server did not work.
(I should mention that I grabbed my colleagues VM that was already set up with his credentials.)
For me this worked:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/buckh/archive/2006/09/12/path-is-already-mapped-in-workspace.aspx
I just went into the : ...\Local Settings\Application Data\ made a search for VersionControl.config, opened up the folder that contained this file and deleted all of it's contents.
Previous to that I tried manually editing the file but it continued with the same error message.
I hope this helps.
For some reason I was having trouble deleting the workspace from the command-line utility. Luckily I found Team Foundation Sidekicks 2010 (from this post) which is free and provides a GUI for viewing and deleting TFS workspaces, and many more useful TFS features.
I had a similar problem with Visual Studio 2010 complaining about an already-mapped-workspace, but instead of deleting the entire workspace, I used the following from the Visual Studio Command Prompt: "tf workspace PROBLEM_WORKSPACE_NAME". This brought up an "Edit Workspace" dialog. From there I was able to remove the path in question from the "Working Folders" list, which got rid of the error.
the rest was fairly easy.
Simply go to this folder:
C:\Users{UserName}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\4\Cache
and delete all that's in the folder.
I was getting an exception telling me that the file was already mapped in another workspace:
"The path {File Path} is already mapped in workspace {Workspace Name}."
This workspace was deleted beofre.
With the help of friend of mine I found out that TFS save workspace info under the user local settings dir. We found a file named:
VersionControl.config under {User Documents and Settings dir}\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Team Foundation\1.0\Cache.
This file contains all the local mapping of TFS. Probably when you use the Map method and don't use:
public void DeleteMapping(WorkingFolder mapping); before deleting the workspace the mapping information is not removed from this file which is used by TFS to check if you've alreay mapped a specific path.
To resolve this problem delete all the keys from the config file. Don't delete the file because you'll get it again from the server cache.
Here is what I did (well what I do):
Using TFS Sidekicks clear out the user and server filters so they are blank. This will let you get all workspaces.
Check the build error for the workspace name. In the OPs case it is BuildServer_23. It is different in my environment but basically just match up the error name with the one in the tfs sidekick list.
Click the red x to delete the workspace.
Viola!
If applicable, you can also clone the build definition and change its name. This workded for me.
I tried all the following solutions such as :
Use sidekicks to delete WS.
Use tf commands to delete remote server workspaces.
Delete the TFS cache folder.
The following worked for me:
tf workspaces /remove:*
If you don't have permissions on the server to delete other people's workspaces, you can just change the name of the build definition. TFS will create a new workspace and map it to "C:\Build\ProductReleases\new build name here\Sources".
While trying to 'Get latest version' of a project which I had previously mapped to a local directory and then deleted, I saw this same error message.
First I tried the SideKick tool and then the Visual Studio 2010 command prompt, both of which told me I had no workspaces mapped.
Next I searched for 'VersionControl.config' within c:/users/myuser/appdata, and deleted the 4 references it found.
I re-opened Visual Studio and I was able to re-map the project, no more error!
Simplest way to do this is to go to your AppData and delete the TFS cache (depending on the version 3.0 or 4.0)
C:\Users{UserName}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\3.0\Cache
or
C:\Users{UserName}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\4.0\Cache
TDN's solution worked for me when I was having the same issue. The Build server created workspaces under my account. Checking this box allowed me to see and delete them.
I got same issue in Visual Studio 2017 and TFS 2017. DefaultCollection must be mapped first to you local path. Somehow this step was skipped and I got only MyFirstProject mapped.
All you need to do is:
- 1. Go to your TFS web page and remove the project from the server.
- 2. Remove the project from your local "Worksapces"
- 3. Go to "Manage Connections" which will refresh your Home page in TeamExplorer.
- 4. You will get Configuration page which will allow you to setup root path to your DefaultCollection.
- 5. You should get message that it been done successfully. Now you can create your project.
It's important to map root of your collection to your workspace first and then map a new project.
My issue was related to using multiple accounts. This is how I was able to switch accounts.
Open Team Explorer
From the big drop down menu near the top of the pane...
Navigate to:
Projects and my Teams>Manage Connections
Navigate to:
Manage Connections>Connect to Team Project
Use the "Switch User" link to switch accounts.
Now the workspace names will match the chosen account.
I couldn't get any other solution to work.
I had a new account created and the old account no longer had permissions (both on same machine).
I tried:
1) Deleting the workspace (couldn't see in VS with or without remote workspaces checked)
2) Deleting from the command line
3) New owner command
4) Deleting the cache
So I simply opened VS as admin and mapped to a different folder.
Deleting the workspace and cache was not sufficient for me.
I had to also restart the "Visual Studio Team Foundation Build Service Host" service.
Go to the Source Control Explorer
In the toolbar there is a dropdown list of Workspaces.
Click the dropdown and go to workspaces.
Remove the unwanted workspace.
Map to your local.
I changed
Build Definition -> Workspace -> Build Agent Folder
from
c:\some\path
to
$(SourceDir)
and it fixed the issue.
I had this issue with this with Azure DevOps automated builds in an on-prem TFS build agent. Removing the workspace using TFS Sidekicks did not work. And tf.exe could not even find the workspace to delete it.
This solution should work for TFS 2017, TFS 2018, Azure DevOps, and possibly other versions:
Take note of the workspace GUID in the error message.
On the machine where the build is taking place, navigate to: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\ (where %USERPROFILE% belongs to the user that triggered the build).
Search for and remove all instances of the workspace GUID under that directory. There will likely be a folder in a 'cache' directory, as well as entries in 'LocationServerMap.xml' and 'LocalItemExclusions.config'. Remove them all.
That worked in my circumstance.
Simply delete the workspace:
workspace /delete "the-workspace-name"
