There are no items in TeamProject in Reporting site - tfs

When I opened the Report site (in created Team Project), I am faced with the "There are no items in TeamProject. Click Help for more information about this page"
Report site: team Explorer>Right-click on Reports in team explorer and select show Report site, then open the Report site

check tfs server health with "Best Practices Analyzer" tool
call the command line option to install the new templates
tfpt addprojectreports /collection:%serverName\CollectionName% /teamp
roject:%TeamProjectName% /processtemplate:"MSF for Agile Software
Development v5.0" /force
to add all of the Reports for a Process Template to TFS

I assume you use TFS 2010. When you go into the TFS Admin Console (you can find it on the TFS server), open the Team Project Collections Node. You have there the Reports Folder. Please check whether it is correctly configured.

I want to configure TFS2015 and have VS2019 show following error

In solution explorer new Team option is also not visible
TF206018: The items could not be added to source control because either no team projects have been set up, or because you do not have permission to access any of the team projects in the current collection.
This is a known issue. Please find more detailed information in this ticket: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/690875/cannot-create-a-new-team-project-from-within-the-t.html.
According to the workaround from the product group, please use the "New Project" button on the home page of the org / collection in the web experience.
If you are using an older version of TFS that does not have this option available in the web, you will need to install an older version of Visual Studio that has that option available.
Visual Studio Team Explorer 2017 is a great option. It is free, installs side by side with VS 2019, has minimal footprint, and installs in less than 5 minutes. Download page is here.

"No repositories available" in Visual Studio 2017 when connecting to TFS

When I try to connect to TFS 2015 from within Visual Studio 2017, I get the message "No repositories available". The tfs server is listed, but I cannot connect.
No problems in Visual Studio 2015.
Do you have an idea, what I could do?
Thank you
This is a new UI design changed by Visual Studio 2017.
In Visual Studio 2017, we changed the behavior of the Connect page. We
now populate the Connect Page list with only the items you’ve
selected.
If you select a project and click "Connect", you will see only the project node in the Connect page. To get your repositories to appear
on the Connect page you need to select the repository node in the
Connect dialog and hit Connect.
This change was made in response to feedback from folks who had large
numbers of repositories in their team projects and wanted to not have
them all added whenever they connected to anything in said project.
More details please refer the visual studio team's comment in this similar question: Team Explorer does not show the repositories within a multi repository project
I had similar issue ,for me TFS is using Kerberos authentication. I changed the authentication to NTLM by running command from Developer tools under TFS server.
TFSConfig Authentication [/provider:NTLM|Negotiate] [/viewAll] [/siteType:ApplicationTier|Proxy]
Reference - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/server/command-line/tfsconfig-cmd?view=azure-devops#authentication
We also did IISRESET after this.
After this i am able to view the Repos under visual studio.

Unable to see documents in Team Explorer 2013 after upgrade

We have upgraded TFS2008 to 2013 on a new server and source control/workitem tracking is okay - we can use all that from within VS2013 Pro.
We have also upgraded Sharepoint (containing all the project documentation) to a new database server and using the TFS 2013 Adminisration Console we can see the Team Projects listed there.
However although from the VS2013 Team Exlorer we can add the team projects and open the 'web portal' for each team project, we cannot see any of the documents nor can we (seemingly) view in a browser the portal that in VS2008 shows the document libraries.
Are we missing something in the unfamiliar interface, or can anyone advise what the cause might be and how to fix it?
You need to "wire up" the Team Projects to the Sharepoint sites. It sounds like they have been detached through the order of the upgrade.
Sharepoint needs to be upgraded and available during the upgrade process or this happens
You can however easily wire them back up. In the Team Project in Visual Studio go to the Team Explorer and do "Settings|Portal".
You should have a dialog for wiring up The existing Sharepoint to the Team Project.
If you don't you may have Tbeen disconnected at the collection level. In which case you can open the TFS Administration Console and follow: http://nakedalm.com/integrate-sharepoint-2013-with-team-foundation-server-2013/

Can't find reports in Team Foundation Server 2010

I have recently setup TFS 2010 and am trying to access the reporting feature. TFS is installed on Windows Server 2008 R2 and I am accessing TFS using Visual Studio 2010.
From what I have seen on the web, I should have a reports option in Team Explorer or from the Team menu in Visual Studio. I don't have this option at all. I have seen MSDN articles saying the option may have a red cross next to it, but I don't see at all.
From the TFS Admin console, reporting seems to be setup. All three options (Warehouse, Analysis Services and Report Server) have a green tick and say "Configured".
If I access the reports URL, I get a web interface but there are no out-of-the-box reports.
Thanks in advance for your help.
The problem was that the default reports folder location had not been set. I only noticed by clicking through all the screens in desperation.
Open the TFS Admin Console, go to Application Tier > Team Project Collections. Then in the Reports Folder tab at the bottom make sure you have set a value. I just used the default example which was /TfsReports/DefaultCollection.
You don't see the folder "Reports" in this view?
Do you have a screen like this?

How to update VSTS 2008 Team System Web Access to VSTS 2010

Is there something like VSTS2010 Team System Web Access (TSWA), if yes where is it located(web page, package with VSTS2010 installer), I'm searching for it but Microsoft pages directs me to VSTS2008 TSWA
I try to upgrade VSTS2008 to VSTS2010, after the upgrade I tried to access it through Team System Web Access and I got an error The type 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WebAccess.DefaultPage' is ambiguous:it could come from assembly 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team System Web Access\Wiwa\bin\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WebAccess.Server.DLL' or from assembly 'C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WebAccess.Server\10.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WebAccess.Server.dll'. Please specify the assembly explicitly in the type name.
Do you have an idea what should I do?
When you do a clean install of TFS 2010, the Team Web Access is created to connect to the SharePoint portal. This of course happens when a team project is created. There's simply a "Team Web Access" link in the left navigation pane of the portal.
Try to right-click a team project in Team Explorer, and choose "Show Project Portal". See if you have that link in the right nav.
