I'm experiencing some problems with connection to TFS2010 with Visual Studio 2010 in https.
I have installed:
Visual Studio 2010
Team Explorer 2010
Visual Studio 2010 SP1
KB 2581206
but I'm getting TFS 31002 error:
Do I need to install something else?
Thanks a lot!
The problem was that the computer was in the same domain as the TFS server, so the credetials that were passed to TFS were those of the user logged that are invalid to connect to TFS.
So I solved removing computer from domain and now credential are correctly prompted.

I have tried to install service pack1 as well as team foundation server with GDR compatibility on Visual Studio 2010 but still when I try to connect to dev.azure.com it throws error unable to find TFS server Can somebody please suggest how to resolve this issue.
Double check you have installed the following two software updates for VS 2010:
Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 (KB2736182)
TFS 2012 compatibility update for Visual Studio 2010 (KB2662296)
And try to clear the cache folder on your client machine. The folder path is: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\x.0\Cache. Make sure you type the correct server URL.
If the issue persists, you could add some screenshots of how you connected the server.
Good evening.
I have been trying to connect to TFS 2010 source through Visual Studio 2015. I am able to view TFS 2010 server and projects from VS 2015.However, IDE throws 'object reference not set to an instance of an object' exception when I try to connect to any of projects in TFS server. Much appreciate any further advise.
We couldn't get this working in TFS 2010 and hence migrated to TFS 2015 solved this issue.
I have Team Foundation Server 2015 installed, and I'm trying to connect Visual Studio 2008 (Version 9.0.30729.4462 QFE) to the team project. I have installed VS 2008 Team Explorer (version 9.0.21022.8).
According to MS, this should be possible using MSSCCI Provider. However, I can't find the version that's compatible with TFS 2015.
Question: Where is the MSSCCI Provider for TFS 2015, or is there another way to connect VS 2008 to TFS 2015 ?
I have tried MSSCCI Provider for TFS 2013, and it failed because it didn't detect TFS 2013 (which makes sense since I have 2015 installed).
Did you install the vs2008 sp1 compatibility GDR? Or else please install it.. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29983
When passing the TFS URL in VS 2008 make sure that you are passing the tfs collection name as well, otherwise vs 2008 will throw error. For example, http://servername:8080/tfs/{collection1}
Edit: Please make sure that you install VS 2008 SP1 before you try steps 1 and 2.
In my case, I had no VS 2008 IDE was installed until yesterday.
Due to some conversion limitations in my company, I had to install the old Visual Studio 2008 to my office PC (Windows 10 Pro x64) and connect it to TFS 2015.
I hope this helps someone else like me:
First I've installed Visual Studio 2008.
And then VS 2008 SP1.
Lastly Visual Studio TeamExplorer 2008. (At least this should be the happy ending but I was wrong.)
Tried to install VS90SP1-KB974558-x86, but it failed. The package seeks for VS 2008 SP1. I think TeamExplorer 2008 overrides sth important for KB974558.
Installed Visual Studio 2008 SP1 again.
VS90SP1-KB974558-x86 installed successfully.
On the page "Connect to Team Foundation Server", add your TFS 2015 server by ignoring the port and protocol section, and write down your own like;
http://TFS_SERVER:PORT_NUMBER/tfs/TFS_COLLECTION_NAME
It fails everytime if I skip the collection name part.
Since I cant comment. I want to say that we have the same problem.
What works is installing the Visual Studio Team Explorer 2013 which includes a Visual Studio Shell 2013 and then we can install the MSSCCI Provider 2013. But thats just a workaround.
We also wonder where the MSSCCI Provider for 2015 is.
You can just use MSSCCI for TFS 2013 to connect to TFS2015 source control in VS2008.
Just as the MSDN article shown, in VS2008, Version Control is available via using MSSCCI Provider. So instead of connect to TFS in Team Explorer, you need to go to File -> Source Control -> Open from Source Control -> Connect to Team Foundation Server. I believe this blog is helpful to you (although it is written for TFS2013 with VS2005, it applies to TFS2015 with VS2008).
I have some requirements that I need to use Visual Studio 2008 for a new SSIS package. But we are using visualstudio.com as our source control because we were allowed to use Visual Studio 2012 for our main project.
I tried following the instructions here http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/get-started/connect-to-vs.aspx and here how to open Team Explorer in Visual Studio 2008 and no go.
Has anyone been able to connect to their TFS server at visualstudio.com from Visual Studio 2008? If so, how did you do it?
Officially VS 2008 is only supported against TFS 2013 (and Visual Studio Online) by using the MSSCCI. However, in practice it still works fine without MSSCCI, MS just no longer tests this particular scenario, so it's not guaranteed to continue working.
Make sure you have the appropriate updates installed, you need:
VSTS 2008 Team Explorer
VS 2008 SP1
TFS 2012 Compatibility GDR
Order of installation is very important. Refer to this article.
Moreover, if you are still having issues connecting to TFS after successfully installing above mentioned updates, consider clearing your IE browsing history (all checkboxes) and retry.
Per MSDN you can access version control on Visual Studio Online with Visual Studio 2008 using Team Explorer for Visual Studio Team System 2008 and MSSCCI 2013.
I am trying to connect to my TFS 2010 RC server. When I try to connect I get a error message.
Here is a screen shot:
alt text http://xs.to/image-2537_4B8BEAA0.jpg
This is the path I am using to connect: http://tfs2010test:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection
I have Team Explorer 2008 SP 1 installed.
I have read this question: Visual Studio 2008: Can't connect to known good TFS 2010. That is how I got my path that I tried.
I can connect just fine using Visual Studio 2010.
What am I missing?
Have you installed the forward compatibility update from here? Further details can be found here.
Here was my solution to get Visual Studio 2008 Team System to connect to TFS2010: (Beware convoluted).
Install Visual Studio 2008 Team Explorer
Uninstall Office 2007 (because of an incompatibility between Visual Studio 2008 SP1 installer and Office 2007)
Run the Microsoft Install Clean Up utility to remove all references to Office 2007 that did not get removed when uninstalling)
Re-Install Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1
Install Visual Studio Team System 2008 Service Pack 1 Forward Compatibility Update for Team Foundation Server 2010
Reinstall Office 2007 or go to OpenOffice
Access TFS2010 repository...
When I have added TFS servers before, I could not add the port in the URL. Have you tried this without the port, and allow discovery?
A few things to try:
Have you tried connecting with Team Explorer 2010?
Have you tried creating a new project collection?
On your server, open the TFS admin tool and confirm that you have permissions to use that collection.
Be aware, some options are just not available in Team Explorer 2008.
Let me know if you need help with the security/groups on the server. It was very confusing to me when I first tried to work with it.
