All of the sudden I can no longer access my TFS 2010 server. It is on the same network as my laptop. I have made no changes to anything. I worked on it one day and then the next day VS2012 and 2010 can't connect. I can also not connect to the web UI from the outside either.
I have VS2010 installed on my server and it can connect just fine. I have looked at my services on my laptop and found nothing about TFS or Visual Studio.
What I have tried.
Restarting the server
Restarting my laptop.
Resetting the TFS user account on my server.
Restarting the web server that TFS runs under.
Checked the server logs for errors.
ipconfig /flushdns
Using VS2010 and VS2012. With all updates.
Turned off Bitdefender firewall.
Firewall on server is turned off.
Ping server name. This works.
RDC into server via same server name. This works.
Connecting to TFS from VS2010 on the server. This works.
I would say this is a DNS issue but I can get to my server just fine except when TFS is involved. It seems like there is a communication issue from an outside source to TFS.
Any ideas on why access from any other source than the server would just stop?
I use Bitdefender too and for my final hope to solve this problem, I went to Control Panel > Uninstall a program > and Repair the Bitdefender, TFS came back!
While Bitdefender was repairing, I was able to access TFS Web site in the same network. Restarted Windows and the problem didn't show up again.
Hope this helps!

I installed Visual Studio 2019 last night with SQL Server components, and now whenever I try to view web pages in Chrome, I get a connection reset error. I assume it has something to do with IIS. I tried uninstalling IIS Express, but that didn’t seem to help. I checked all my connections and everything seems to be fine. I can ping google in the command line, but for some reason I just can’t view the web. Does anyone have any ideas?
Maybe your services are turned off, try entering the task manager with CTRL + ALT + DELETE, and look for SERVICES, the SQL SERVER server you are using, and check if it is stopped.
VS2019 install with SQL Server components causes err_connection_reset
when viewing the web
This is not expected behavior after VS installation. Maybe something in that installing process modified your IE settings.
Try resetting all IE options(IE options=>Advanced=>Reset) and reinstall Chrome browser.
I fixed this by removing all Visual studio installations and reinstalling VS 2019.
I've found quite a few posts of similar issues, but I still am having trouble getting this resolved.
I have a TFS repository I know I have access to with my Microsoft account. I'm currently using it on my laptop as I'm typing this, and if I go there via chrome, I am having no issues.
I finally got my desktop up and running again, and after a fresh windows/VS 2013 install, I am getting unauthorized when trying to connect to team projects. I'm using the same credentials that are being using through Visual Studio on my laptop, and in chrome.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Please use below ways to narrow down the issue.
Try to disable the Antivirus software on your desktop
Try to disable your firewall on your desktop and try again
If you are using VPN on your desktop, please disable it.
Clear TFS and VS cache in your desktop.
Clear the account info from the Credential Manager (Control Panel) both in
your laptop and desktop, then try it again.
Team -> Manage Connexions... -> re-select your project
Close Visual Studio > Reboot all servers in the Topology.
I am a developer. I have created a web site and service with Visual Studio 2010. I am running a fully patched Windows 7 computer.
I need to be able to debug it with devices other than my dev computer hitting the web server. I installed IIS 7.5 and configured everything to be working. I was able to debug when another device hit the web site on this dev computer.
That was yesterday. This morning I started up my computer and there was an update from Microsoft. m12-073. It mentioned IIS.
When I started working on this project today after doing the update now I get a service unavailable (503) error on any computer or device NOT the dev computer. The dev computer still works fine.
The only change from yesterday and today is the update and rebooting.
I tried uninstalling the update and that didn't fix it. I tried a system restore to before the update and that didn't work.
I am now stumped. It worked yesterday and doesn't work today with only the update being the change.
Help?
SOLVED: Turns out the people not being able to access TFS via VS2010 were using laptops, I didn't put two and two together, and Symantec Endpoint was blocking the ports required.
Some users cannot get to the TFS 2010 server, secured by SSL, from team explorer but can via IE.
For example, I go into VS2010 SP1 and attempt to add a new server, it sits there for a while and then spits out a dialog that basically tells me "Unable to connect to the remote server". If I enter the exact same URL into IE I get access perfectly.
So
https://tfserver:8088/tfs (custom SSL port number) in IE and I get full access
The same detail entered into the add server results in
Any ideas?
Connect to tfspreview through VS2010, you need to install following things :
VS SP1: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=23691
KB2581206: http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=39070
Edit: These links are no longer available. The update is now only provided through windows update. See here

I'm debugging a vb.net windows program which I've upgraded to a VS 2010 solution, targeting Framework 2. I need to step into a webservice's code. The web service is framework 3.5, also vb.net, running on a windows 2003 server on our LAN. I've seen a ton of crap on the Net about it, mostly other people who couldn't get it working either.
The error I get in VS2010 is the exact same one I got before upgrading the project from VS 2005:
Unable to automatically step into the server. Connecting to the server
machine [servername] failed. The Microsoft Visual Studio
Remote Debugging Monitor (MSVSMON.EXE) does not appear to be
running on the remote computer. Please see Help for assistance.
So I did what Help said to do and ran the VS 2008 remote debugging wizard on the host server. I have verified that the remote debugger is running as a service on that machine. And it still fails.
Little help? THANKS
Just in case anyone comes here looking for this answer, here it is. No goofy 'Attach to Process', no weird bad instructions
from websites going off on a million stupid tangents. This answer has been FALKENIZED.
When on the same LAN and on the same domain, remote debugging from Visual Studio 2010 works when you do the following steps.
on web service host machine, share the web application folder where the web service lives; give yourself 755 permissions.
oops, give yourself wrxr permissions.
on local development machine, map a network drive to the [web service host machine][web app] folder you just shared.
copy the Visual Studio 2010 remote debugger folder (containing msvsmon.exe + support files) to web service host machine.
Make sure you get the correct platform for your host server, e.g. x86, x64, etc. Remote debugger is found here:
C:\Program Files\Visual Studio 2010\Common7\IDE\Remote Debugger[platform]
on web service host machine, drag a shortcut from the newly-copied debugger to the desktop, then start the remote debugger
on local development machine, step thru code. when reaching a call to the web service, you'll be prompted to navigate
to the location of requested web service code file, which will then be available in your mapped path. Do it.
Finally after 1000000 headaches, you may start debugging your web service. CONGRATULATIONS
