Unable to create team project - visual-studio-2010

I am having below issue while creating team project.
TF30172 : you are trying to create team project either without required permission or with in older version of team explorer.
VS2010,SP1 & TFS 2012 installed.
Please let me know how to fix this issue.

You need to install Team Explorer 2012 to be able to create Team Projects.
It is not supported to create Team Projects for TFS 2012 from Team Explorer 2010 regardless of the Service Pack version. If you restrict how Team Projects are created (recommended) then you could just have Team Explorer 2012 on the TFS server. You would need to make sure that you update both when updated are available.

Can't create team project in tfs express 2015

I'm using TFS Express 2015 and Visual Studio Community 2019. When I try to add solution to source control, I'm getting an error message:
"TF206018: The items could not be added to source control because either no team projects have been set up...".
There's no option of adding team project either in Team Explorer in Visual Studio or in TFS Express Admin Console!?
Is it even possible to work with TFS Express on local machine with VS Community?
It seems it's an existing issue that there is no "New Team Project" option in VS 2019 connecting TFS 2015. Check the following case:
There is no menu to create "new team project" on visual studio 2019

Since it's supported to create and delete Team projects from the web experience in TFS 2015.2 and later, you need to check your TFS edition to see whether you can create a team project from web protal:
As a workaround, you may need to use other versions of VS or install high version TFS.

Adding a new team project to Team Foundation Server 2015

I am trying to set up Team Foundation Server for my official visual studio projects, and we have set up TFS 2015 - Basic Server setup.
I have been working with Visual Studio 2012 in my development machine and trying to connect to the TFS and add projects to it.
When I go to File -> New Team Project, I got an error saying 'TF0172: You are trying to create a team project either without required permissions or with an older version of Team Explorer. Contact your project administrator to check your permissions or to determine how to upgrade Team Explorer'.
I have admin rights in the TFS server as well as in the development machine so the error machine does not look like it is a permission issue.
So trying to see if VS2012 is compatible with TFS 2015, or is it possible to make both compatible?
I have also updated my Visual Studio 2012 with the update 5.
Creating a team project requires a matching version of Visual Studio. So, to create a team project in TFS 2015, you need Visual Studio (or Team Explorer) 2015.

Creating a team project with Team Explorer using Team Foundation Server 2015

I'm looking for a way to do administrative tasks such creating new team projects having installed Team Foundation Server 2015 previously without having to install Visual Studio Community 2015. In older versions of TFS, I could use Team Explorer for creating team projects but now which version of Team Explorer can I use to do it on TFS 2015?
The Team Explorer is gone for 2015 "wave": "we are not going to ship a Team Explorer 2015 stand-alone GUI".
To create a new team project you have to use Visual Studio 2015:
"Only the latest version has "full" compatibility with the latest Team Foundation Server, because this will be the only client that contains components that can interface with new features for that release, and will also be the only client from which you can perform certain administrative tasks such as creating new team projects" link
You need at least Team Explorer installed. There's no way around it. The problem is that Microsoft isn't shipping Team Explorer 2015 as a stand-alone package. You can install Community and use that.
Once you have Team Explorer available, you can use the Team Foundation Power Tools to create a Team Project from the command line, though.
If you don't want to install Visual Studio 2015 (8GB across all drives) for Team Explorer only you can follow the workaround explained in that article : http://www.sqlshack.com/wheres-my-team-explorer-2015/ basically by using an older version of Team Explorer and the Excel add-in

TF225001: Creating a build definition requires a build controller be defined for this team project collection

I have installed TFS 2013 Express edition. I also want to activate the Continuous integration option, but when I click New Build Definition, I see the error below:
TF225001: Creating a build definition requires a build controller be defined for this team project collection.There may not be any controllers configured or you may not have the permissions to view them. Contract your Team Foundation Server administrator.
My Visual Studio is 2013 Community Edition and my Team Foundation Server is 2013 express edition.
You need to install and configure a TFS Build Controller. Normally you would do this from the TFS Install, not sure if TFS Community includes the ability to be used as a build server also though.

Add a project in TFS

I have Visual Studio Ultimate edition and need to add a project in TFS.
I want to make my local desktop as the TFS server.
My desktop specs:
Windows 7
Visual Studio 2010 Utlimate
I have no idea how to go about it and add a new project in TFS. I read a lot of blogs but didn't find any that lists something from scratch.
As in when I try to create a Team project in TFS, i get the server section as empty. How to configure my local desktop to act as a TFS server??
First things first, read this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd997788.aspx (Compatibility between Team Foundation clients and Team Foundation Server)
Second, you need to decide which version of TFS you are planning to run. Is your company paying for a version of it or are you planning on using the express edition available (2013)?
If your answer to that is TFS Express 2013, then I suggest you navigate to this link and download the installer. Run it and follow the instructions.
If you are planning a full licensed installation, you should familiarize yourself with the various components that come with it (Report server, Sharepoint, etc).
Here is a link to install and administration: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29035
Follow the following steps:
1.
If you haven't already, connect to your Visual Studio Online account and create your workspace folder.
2.Move the code you want to upload to the workspace folder.
3.Open your solution in Visual Studio.
