tfs 2010 on vista ultimate - tfs

i was able to install tfs 2010 on window server 2008 and through team explorer in visual studio 2010 the server came right up no problems. However when i installed it on vista ultimate - first the options were slightly different to install but the wizards worked fine but when i tried to access the url on team explore in visual studio 2010 - i constantly get
500 error. I also noticed the window server 2008 hat "nt authority\network service" which
tfs uses, however window vista sp2 only has "nt authority\local service". (i even tried
to simulate this account on vista in a similar fashion as window server 2008 but to no avail)
Please help. p.s. this is on x86 version of the software.
HELP, HELP, HELP.

A Google search turned up this, where someone was having a similar issue.

Connect VS 2017 to TFS 2005, Compatibility issue?

Is it possible to connect Visual Studio 2017 to a Team Foundation Server 2005 SP1? Version of microsoft.teamfoundation.server.dll = 8.0.50727.762
I tried to connect with http://servername:8080/ (by using the server url servername//) and with http://servername:8080/tfs (by using server url servername)
Both give an error TF31002: Unable to connect. The remote server returned an error 404.
Using Visual Studio 2005 or 2008 the connection goes without a problem.
I can't find a compatibility overview of Visual Studio / possible TFS versions.
It might be possible but is not a supported scenario according to TFS Requirements and compatibility, see section about Client compatibility where Team Foundation Server 2008 is the oldest mentioned as supported partly/fully by Visual Studio 2005-2017.

TFS31002: Unable to connect to this Team Foundation Server

We just upgraded our TFS 2013 to TFS 2015. We use VS2015 to communicate with it(we were already using it with our TFS2013). The server was not available during the time our IT made the upgrade.
After the ugprade, everybody started to work again with the server but I was seing it as Offline and I finally decided to remove the server and add it again.
When I add it again(200% sure of all the settings), I get this error:
I finally tried to do the same on our "old" installation of Visual Studio 2013(same computer, same account), and it works. I was at least capable to commit all my changes to the server.
I tried to go on the portal and click on `Open in Visual Studio", and I got another error(TFS400324):
Now I'm trying to regain access to TFS2015 with my VS2015. I can access the web portal.
Here is what I tried after some research:
Do a Repair of Visual Studio 2015
Check that I've no weird proxy
Check that there is no available update(already at VS2015 UPD 1)
Clear the cache of all my Internet explorer
Cleared %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\*.*\Cache
Run VS2015 in admin
Disable my antivirus
Delete registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VSCommon\*.*\ClientServices\TokenStorage
Check that I've no proxy declared in: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v*.*\Config\machine.config
I did a windows update.
I ran the command devenv.exe /resetuserdata
Any clue what is happening and how to solve it?
VS 2013 can connect to TFS 2015, but VS 2015 can't. So the issue is on client side. Try on another client machine to connect TFS 2015 with VS 2015 to check the result.
Clean the client cache: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\5.0\Cache and C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\6.0\Cache. Make sure both 5.0 and 6.0 folder are cleaned.
Clean server cache on AT machine: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0\Application Tier\Web Services_tfs_data, and C:\TfsData\ApplicationTier_fileCache
Remove all credentials in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Credential Manager.
Remove TFS server in Team Explorer: go to Manage Connections--Connect to Team Project--Servers, select TFS 2015, remove it and add it.
Connect TFS 2015 with it's IP address, not server name.
This answer will not please to anybody coming here for an answer, but I had to format my computer and do a whole clean install on it.
A little trick might help.
Change port 8080 to another port. I've changed to port 5000
I hope to be useful.

Cannot install OpsHub Visual Studio Online Migration Utility

Installing the opshub migration tool while logged in as user 'Administrator' fails during setup with error message
ops-003: You are not running the installer with appropriate settings! Please verify the user running the installer is an Admin user.
I searched for this error message in google and looked in the Q&A Visual Studio Gallery site for the migration tool but found nothing concerning this error.
I am trying to install the utility on a virtual server logged in as Administrator.
Download version is:
OVSMU-V1.1.0.005
Operating system:
Windows 2008 R2 Datacenter with Service Pack 1 (This is the machine where TFS 2012 is installed).
Thanks for any help.

ASP.NET 4 MVC System Requirements (for Sever Deployment)?

Not sure why I haven't been able to find this yet. When I Google for this, for the official release notes I get this: http://www.asp.net/whitepapers/mvc4-release-notes#_Toc303253805 which says:
The ASP.NET MVC 4 components for Visual Studio require PowerShell 2.0
and either Visual Studio 2010 with Service Pack 1 or Visual Web
Developer Express 2010 with Service Pack 1.
The ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta site lists the server system requirements. I think I can assume that these are still what's required, but it would be nice to get the list from the official release:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28942
System requirements Supported operating systems: Windows 7, Windows
Server 2003 R2 (32-Bit x86), Windows Server 2003 R2 x64 editions,
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2008, Windows
Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista Service Pack 2, Windows XP Service Pack
3
Additional Requirements: PowerShell 2.0, .NET 4, ASP.NET 4, and Visual
Studio 2010 SP1 or Visual Web Developer 2010 SP1 are required to use
this feature.
I suppose I am just being stubborn about this, but any help would be appreciated.
I don't know of any official source for the server requirements of the release version. Looks like they left that out of the release notes.

IIS 8 Express does not deliver page

When I debug/run my webs with IIS8 Express, IE starts and then just waits, nothing happens, white page with busy-mouse pointer.
This problem suddenly appeared (Windows 7 and Visual Studio 2010). I decided to reinstall my computer, now with Windows 8 and ONLY Visual Studio 2012 and I got the same problem!?
Running IIS Express (64 bit) with trace-level it works, and no error are reported, it does however not seem to work if I run the web using 32 bit (and from Visual Studio).
I have tested with a MVC4 project and ASP.NET Forms (Episerver) however the later has some issues running in 64bit (since it has dependencies that need to be 32bit).
My colleagues have the same code and for them IIS8 Express works, must be something with my installation?
I have tested reinstalling IIS8 Express (and my computer =)) no luck.
UPDATE:
I have tried running IIS 8 (not express) an it works.
For the MVC Project it seems to be signalr that "causes" the hang (removing RouteTable.Routes.MapHubs makes the site work).
I have tried creating a new MVC and ASP.NET Project and they both work.
So the problem seem to be located around my "old" Projects.
Running mu old projects on my laptop Everything works.
It is starting to drive me crazy
Any suggestions?
Jimmy,
IIS Express has had multiple bug reports with Microsoft. Personally, I'm working in IIS Express now without issue, but there are common complaints about IIS Express hanging after upgrades of VS 2010 SP1 or VS 2012.
That's not exactly your situation, but please read
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vsdebug/thread/3917b164-2acf-4bec-8a0c-295aeaa5c198/
Problem Using IIS Express with Visual Studio 2010 SP1

We've determined that you can use Cassini and IIS 8 at the moment. This may be a cop out, but you're right that it's project dependant (I've seen this before), and in your case you may be better off living with and moving on.
I had a similar issue running my asp.net MVC4 project on localhost under IIS express 8.0. Any time I hit Ctrl F5 to refresh a js file change every js file took 4 to 5 seconds to load. It turns out IIS Exp 8.0 is extremely slow when serving up js files. I ended up uninstalling IIS 8.0 and installing IIS express 7.5 and straight away the problem was fixed. Here are the steps I followed:
Uninstall IIS express 8.0
Delete the My Documents\IISExpress folder
Install IIS express 7.5 (Link to IIS Express 7.5 download)
IIS Express 8.0 seems to be installed with VS 2012 so if you had a new install or possibly a service pack update this might have upgraded your previous IIS express version.
