I'm using the TFS command line utility, "tf.exe" This command:
tf.exe dir /folders /server:[my server] /login:[my login] $/WebSite
Always returns this:
No items match $/WebSite
I know for a fact that my project exists and is called "WebSite". I can browse it fine from Visual Studio, so I know I have permissions to it.
Why would the command line utility not find it?
(It is part of a project collection. Would this change the naming of the project?)
I figured it out. Project collections are added to the end of the server name, which I wasn't doing.

I'm setting up my first Ruby project on Team City, which is hosted on a Windows Server, but I'm having a problem. Now, because the server may not have the required gems installed, I've added a command line build step:
bundle install
Now I thought this would be enough, but apparently bundle is not recognized as an internal or external command. Except, if I RDP into the server, if I run bundle install from anywhere, it is fine, and just notifies me that no gemfile was found.
Any ideas on if I've missed a step, or I'm going about this the wrong way?
Most likely this is a problem with TeamCity not finding the path to ruby executables.
You can address this by overriding the value to the PATH environment variable in your build configuration in the Build Parameters section.
env.PATH=/path/to/ruby;%env.PATH%
See this answer for the proper links to documentation, etc.
EDIT #1
I noticed when updating one of my configurations that TeamCity is supposed to take care of appending values so you DO NOT need to set path equal to itself. The post mentioned above is a workaround for a bug where TeamCity was overwriting the values, but that has been corrected. See the help at the mouse-over for more information:
EDIT #2
I tested edit #1 and found that is not the case. You do need to
create an environment variable env.Path
and set it's value to itself plus your new path; in my example, C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\;%env.Path%
you do NOT need to say env.Path=... as listed above; that is what the configuration file will look like.
I tested this out by doing the following:
Created a new project with no repository
Added a command line build step to `echo %env.Path%
Added a command step to call MySql mysql --help This will fail if it cannot find MySql
I then ran it for each of the following settings for the env.Path variable:
Not added / changed; TeamCity reports out the environment variable for the build agent as is.
Added as just C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\. TeamCity reports out only that entry.
Added as C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\;%env.Path%. TeamCity prepends C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\ to the build agent's values shown in #1. The result is what we want, #1 + #2
I'm running a multi-program projects using ACE TAO. I set the Environment Variables and compiled ACE_TAO environment. Then I copied the tao_cosnaming.exe to my project run directory and use a .bat to start the naming service.
The programs run well if I start them directly, but they could not get the "NameService" correctly when I invoke obj = orb->resolve_initial_references("NameService") in debug mode. (I could not run obj->_non_existent(), it throws an error).
It seemed because the Naming Service is implemented as a remote one. When I invoke obj = orb->invoke resolve_initial_references("RootPOA"), things are fine, because RootPOA is local object so obj->_non_existent() return immediately.
The .bat file is like:
cd /D %DTAX_RUN_DIR%
tao_cosnaming -ORBEndPoint iiop://%DTAX_NAME_SERVICE_HOST%
The DTAX_RUN_DIR and DTAX_NAME_SERVICE_HOST are Environment Variables. DTAX_RUN_DIR is project run directory and DTAX_NAME_SERVICE_HOST=169.254.51.81:10493
Could anybody share some ideas on what is going wrong? Thanks!
It's hard to give a definite solution with just the information you provided, but in my projects I need to pass "-c" (without the quotes) as a command argument so that I can debug it, maybe you need to do the same.
In Visual Studio in the project properties you can find the Command arguments field in Properties/Debugging.
My situation:
I am working on an ASP.NET MVC project and debug in IIS-Express. Sometimes when we create a temporary branch, this branch will use the same port for debugging. This means the virtual directory in IIS is the same and I can't run them both at the same time.
How it used to work in vs2010:
This is not really a problem because I don't want to run them at the same time. However, in VS2010, I would get a warning when opening the branch for the first time. It asked me if I wanted to remap the URL. When I later returned to open the trunk, I would get the same warning (See https://stackoverflow.com/a/3093534/210336).
How it doesn't work in vs2012:
Now in VS2012, I don't get the warning anymore. If I forget to manually go to the settings and press "Create Virtual Directory" (This has happend a few times), then when I click run in the branch, it will actually run the trunk. This can be extremely confusing. Especially if I try to debug or the system breaks on an exception. A source file from the trunk will be opened in the branch solution. I then think I'm editting the branch, but I am in fact editting the trunk...
Is there anyway to let VS2012 perform the same check as VS2010?
Or am I doing/understanding something else completely wrong?
VS actually edits the IIS Express configuration file found in one of these paths
%userprofile%\documents\iisexpress\config\applicationhost.config
%userprofile%\my documents\iisexpress\config\applicationhost.config
When leaving it up to VS, I tend to see duplicated and conflicting configurations.
For local development, I prefer to start IIS Express from cmd or powershell script as it does not require attaching (but can be attached) and gives me control over the configuration. I make a copy of the iis config and specify the config file in the iis express command. I have a powershell script that sets the path based on the executing directory so no matter which branch, it is always set to the one I'm working in.
Here is some information about running iis express from the command line:

And here is a good resource for running iis express from powershell:

I'm attempting to sync Intellij's built in TFS plugin workspace with the one used by TEE's command line 'tf' command on OSX Mountain Lion and failing miserably.
This question appears to be very similar to mine, however it has no reference to what one should do when the computer name reported by each tool is different.
Intellij says my computer name is the fully qualified domain name (ex: hostname.domain.com) whereas the 'tf workspaces' command reports the computer name to be just the the hostname (ex: hostname). Consequently, they are unable to use the same workspace. I do know that you can change the computer name of a workspace, but I'd like to use both at the same time as we have some ant tasks using the 'tf' command locally. Our Windows users in the group are able to do this just fine.
Is there any way to make these tools report the same thing for the computer name? I believe I could then use the 'tf workspaces' command and enable me to use both at the same time in the same workspace. Much obliged.
It's not supported (according to the responsible developer). Please submit a request and we'll see what can be done to make it work.
Team Explorer Everywhere allows you to override your local hostname with the computerName system property. You can edit your tf launcher script to match what IntelliJ is using. You can change the last few lines of the file to be:
exec java -Xmx512M -classpath "$CLC_CLASSPATH" \
-DcomputerName=`hostname -f` \
"-Dcom.microsoft.tfs.jni.native.base-directory=$BASE_DIRECTORY/native" \
$RANDOM_DEVICE_PROPERTY com.microsoft.tfs.client.clc.vc.Main "$#"
If hostname -f does not actually report the same hostname that IntelliJ is determining, of course, you can simply hardcode that instead.
I installed a copy of f# on my machine (on a secondary drive), and when i try to start the F# interactive prompt, it says it could not find fsi.exe. Do i need to copy some files somewhere or something?
You could try to look here:
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SDKs\F#\<fsharp_version>\Framework\<dotnet_version>\Fsi.exe"
With the VS 15.8 update it appears to have been moved. I found it in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\FSharp\fsi.exe
Could you be more specific with your repro steps? I assume you are using the latest, May 2009 CTP? Also, when you say 'start the F# Interactive prompt' are you talking about launching it from the start menu?
On most machines it will be exactly:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\FSharp-1.9.7.4\bin\fsi.exe"
If you did something non-standard it could just be a bug in the installer. E.g., did you override the Program Files folder for your F# installation by passing in a command line parameter to msiexec?
Do a quick search for fsi.exe on your machine (the console F# interactive window) and point your shortcut there.
