Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server - Version 16.131.28106.2
Agent.OS Windows_NT
Agent.OSVersion 6.3.9600
Agent.Version 2.136.1
My TFS build agent is not identifying Visual Studio 2017(Enterprise) as a capability while running as a service(under a service account on my primary domain). That same agent does identify Visual Studio 2015 as a capability while running as a service under the same account as above.
I've updated the agent, removed and reconfigured the build agent in question, restarted the agent-service, and restarted the OS. I did notice that when this agent is first configured, the capability is briefly identified while the agent runs under the individual running the configure script, but when the agent switches over to running under the service account, the VS2017 capabilities disappear.
After noticing this, I gave the service account in question read and execute privileges on the root Windows install dir, 'Program Files (x86), and all directories and files associated with the VS2017 install, but this didn't help.
If I run a different build agent interactively(same version as listed above), VS2017 is identified as a capability, so I'm assuming there is something I need to do in regards to the service account I'm attempting to use.
For good measure, within the Visual Studio build task, I tried using the 'latest' option and the 'Visual Studio 2017' options. I also tried adding '/p:VisualStudioVersion=15.0' to the MSBuild args for this task.
Update: I also tried explicitly specifying the capabilities directly in the 'User-Defined' section, and I tried adding the capabilities through the use of environment variables on the agent host.
Have you ensured that the service account user is added as the role service account on the pool the agent is running on?
Also ensure that the service account is able to do the following in these Local Security Policies: "logon as a service", "act as part of the operating system", "Manage auditing and security log"
I can't say that this will be able to solve your problem, but I just know that these are necessary in the setups I handle.
You could also for quick and easy test add you service account as an administrator on the machine and test if it finds VS 2017 then. If it does, then you know you need to set some specific groups and permissions.
Right now we are using the Cross-Platform CLI for Team Explorer Everywhere to do work on Linux. I want to have a check-in policy that forces users to add a comment to their checkin. Based on this page https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg475890(v=vs.100).aspx it seems like if I use the web interface or Visual Studio, or Visual Studio Command Line these policies won't apply. However, this page doesn't seem to give any information on how to do it using the command line and I can't find info anywhere else. Is there a way I can do this via the Linux command line or even a standalone app, or do I have to use Eclipse?
The Team Explorer Everywhere (TEE) Command-Line Client (CLC) cannot configure check-in policies and the TEE Eclipse plug-in must be used.
I am trying to build a project with build server and it keeps giving me the following error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\InstallShield\2013Limited\InstallShield.targets (108): -7159: The product license has expired or has not yet been initialized.
I have added the account used by Build in the build collection administrator group and project collection administrator group. I also activated installshield both through Visual Studio (creating new setup project) and then going in this location
c$\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield\2013LE\System\TSConfig.exe
I have VS 2010 (Shell), VS 2012 and VS2013 installed.
I have also added this user in the administrator group on that server. I have restarted the build server multiple times. I am not sure what else to try. Could anyone please help
Be ensure that the BuildService is not running with a local account such as "NT_AUTHORITY\Network Service". If so, please change it with a domain account and add the user account to the administrator group. Restart TFS build server machine, and re-queue the build.
In addition, please also have a check on this blog for the details on how to work with Installshield with TFS build:

Our shop uses Visual Studio Team Services, previously Visual Studio Online, for SVN and Builds.
We are trying to find a way to download the drop package (build zip) via the command line. For this purpose, we stumbled upon TFS Drop Downloader which appears to be made for this very reason. Unfortunately, the last revision was made in 2013 and does not appear to work with Visual Studio Team Services anymore. When we supply the parameters (collection, username, password, etc.) it asks again for credentials via a Windows dialog and all attempts seem to fail.
Is there another way to download the builds from Visual Studio Team Services via the command line?
Sample command line:
C:\> tfsdropdownloader /c:https://project.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection /t:"Project Name" /b:"Build Definition" /u:username /p:password
Even though we supply username and password, the tool asks for credentials again via a Windows dialog and fails even when supplied.
I'm migrating my team's CI from TFS to TeamCity.
As part of my build I need to update a few files and check the changes back to TFS.
I've created a simple MSBuild script that checkout the files, update them and check the changes back in.
The script works great on my machine but when I run it fro TeamCity I get the following error:
TF30063: You are not authorized to access ...
Is there a way I can run only the MSBuild step and another user?
Is there a way to grant TeamCity's Agent the needed permissions to connect to TFS
Did you add the Team City Agent account to the team project security groups in Team Foundation Server?
