Can I copy/clone the whole instance from one to different?
How can I do that? Is there any widget?
If anyone can help me, that would be great.
Yes you can, with a few caveats:
Only users with an Admin role can request a clone
by default the clone target instance must be non-prod (this can be changed in the system properties though)
personal developer instances cannot be a target instance
Instructions:
As an Admin (user with admin role), in the navigation menu of the
source instance, go to "clone targets" and click "new". It will ask
for the target URl, user name and password.
Now you have a clone target, in the navigation menu of the source
instance, go to "request clone". You need to select the newly
created target instance, a scheduled time for the clone (usually has
to be a few hours in the future), and fillout your email address so
you get updates on progress.
Once the clone is completed, you can log into the target instance which will be freshly cloned.

I'm setting up a new share that I've enabled enumerated access on. I'm looking to limit people access to files on a certain folder. I've setup other folders that restrict access unless your in a security group. This folder thats giving me trouble was copied over from another network share. When I create a folder from scratch everything works fine so I'm curious if thats whats giving me issues.
The folder I'm trying to access is
x:/Limerock/Projects/"Project Name"
If I go into the security tab and check my effective access it says that I have full control:
The user I'm signed into is joe.jankowiak which is part of the Domain Admins security group. Domain Admins owns all the folders in above this and has full control.
When trying to enter the folder it tells me I need to request permission. I'm an admin so it goes through and adds "joe.jankowiak" to the full control list in the security permissions.
Why is it not taking my domain admin credentials to enter this folder? I'm seeing other weird behavior such as it saying "Unable to display current owner." and "You must have read permissions to view the properties of this object". Clicking continue lets me see it.
Everything looks right, I've setup 6 other new folders in the exact same manner and they work fine. I've signed in and out many times but it hasn't fixed it. Weird enough, another computer I signed into lets me access the folder just fine. Is there a way to reload file permissions since logging in/out doesn't seem to do it. Is there a command like gpupdate that I should run?
I have seen this before andyou might need to do the following operations in order:
-Replace Ownership on the folder and replace all child object ownership too=>apply or OK
-Close the security properties and re-open it again
-Add Domain Admins as full control and Replace all child object permissions... =>apply/OK
That should do it
Trying to detect the first install event from branch.io link (succesfully implement link creating and sharing). I am using Unity branch sdk. The feature i try to create:
user_1 creates and share link to user_2.
When user_2 opens the link and install app i need to reward both of them (with inner in-game coins)
So i succesfully implement the 1. but I cant understand how to detect is user_2 installs the app or simply open it. All data that comes from branch.io UniversalObject callback doesn't contain information that i need.
Which the correct way to detect the install from code?
Alex from Branch here.
The callback parameter you need is +is_first_session. This is one of the parameters returned when the Branch session is initiated each time your app opens (you can find all all these parameters here). If this returns true, then that device has just installed the app (instead of opening it).
However, note that when these parameters are returned, it's impossible to immediately determine if the user is new (what you want), the device is new (not what you want, since the reward could be given twice if the user has installed on multiple devices), or neither (the user deleted the app and reinstalled on the same device). You would probably want to hold off on actually awarding the referral points until after the user has logged in with some sort of unique ID.
Branch also has a built-in feature for tracking referral points that might be useful. That lets you configure all the rules using the dashboard UI instead of needing to do it programmatically inside your app.
I have one TeamCity project Dac.Test that contains 3 configurations: DEV, QA, PROD.
Also I have some users associated with their Roles. Is this possible to hide / show certains configurations for selected users or groups?
For example: Users associated with group: Testers can see QA configuration, but not PROD and DEV.
There is no way of managing user permissions per-build, this is available on a project level only. You could create a sub-project in the Dac.Test project to cater for this
If you're looking for a way of stopping people from mistakenly running this build, the following approach will work.
This method uses a prompt box that will pop up after you click the run button, it also needs input from the user confirming that they mean to run the build.
No one can run this build by accident
Go to your build configuration in the TeamCity UI
From here, go to Edit Configuration Settings --> Parameters --> Add new parameter
Enter something like 'Confirmation' as the parameter name
Then beside 'Spec:', click the 'Edit...' button
Set up the parameter as shown in the following screenshot:
You will now be prompted and asked for confirmation when you click the run button. The user will have to enter 'YES' in the prompt box that appears, any other value will stop the user from building:
This is best accomplished by using TeamCity's built-in role management. Roles allow you to set fine-grained permissions for users and groups. One potential issue, however, is that roles are scoped to projects (not build configurations). You'll need to create a separate Dac.Test QA project+configuration and provide your Testers the necessary privileges there. You'll also need to make sure that they are stripped of all privileges for the Dac.Test project.
We use TeamCity 7.1.1 to publish NuGet packages on both the authenticated and public feed URLs. I've just created a new package and can't get it to show up on the public feed, though it does appear on the private feed once I log in.
It smacks of a permissions problem, but I've assigned 'All Users' the 'Project Viewer' role on that build. I have another build that is showing up correctly, and the configuration seems the same. What could be stopping my new build from appearing on the public feed?
Solved it! I've been scratching my head for hours and of course I find the answer 30 seconds after posting to StackOverflow!
It seems that the Guest account is not a member of All Users, so assigning the Project Viewer role to All Users is not sufficient.
One has to explicitly assign the Project Viewers role to the Guest User. This is confusingly done in a completely separate screen, under Guest user settings, linked from the top right hand side of the main user administration screen. Walla! Job done.
I use the following command to get the latest version of a branch for a specific user (not the one running the process):
tf get $/MyProject/Development /version:WmyPC;otherUser /login:otherUser,otherPassword
Bt I keep getting:
The operation cannot be completed because the user (otherUser) does
not have one or more required permissions (Use) for workspace...
Any ideas?
By default, when you create a workspace it is a 'Private Workspace' - this means that the person who created it is the only person who can "use" it (which is why you get that specific error message).
What you will want to do is change the workspace to a 'Public Workspace' - this updates the permissions and allows multiple people to use the same workspace, but using their own credentials.
For more information, see my blog post TFS2010: Public Workspaces.
You are trying to get the files on your local machine with the credentials of someone else. It is not executing the TF under other credentials.
In other words, you still use the workspace mapping of yourself.
You need to use the RUNAS command to fullfil your task: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/tfsversioncontrol/thread/20b6f678-4657-4b14-a114-5eeb232934e2/
