I created a slipstream installer according to the instructions in the installation guide. Started with installing TFC and VS SP1 to make sure that everything was done according to instructions.</P> <P>When the installation was done I configured TFS to use a FQDN according to the instructions in <A class="" href="http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2007/03/31/configuring-team-foundation-server-to-use-fully-qualified-domain-names.aspx" target=_blank mce_href="http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2007/03/31/configuring-team-foundation-server-to-use-fully-qualified-domain-names.aspx">Buck's blog post</A>. Then I was ready to test the installation.</P> <P>I was logged on to the TFS server as TFSSetup, started Visual Studio, connected to TFS using my FQDN and selected to create a new team project. It took a little while and then the PCW ended with an error.</P> <P>TF30224: Failed to retrieve projects from the report server. Please check that the SQL Server Reporting Services Web and Windows services are running and you have sufficient privileges for creating a project.</P> <P>Looking at the project creation log I found the error</P> <P>Exception Message: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The permissions granted to user 'GALLIEN\TFSSetup' are insufficient for performing this operation. ---&gt; </P> <P>I couldn't really figure out what I had done wrong, everything seemed to look correct. Since I was running in a VPC I had enabled the undo disk&nbsp;before configuring the FQDN so I decided to back the environment to that point and try if it was my configuration that caused the problem but with no luck, I still got the same error.</P> <P>So after looking around a bit I realized that I didn't run VS with elevated permission when testing. That was it I was able to run PCW successfully, now I only have to redo the FQDN configuration :-)</P> <P mce_keep="true">Update:</P> <P mce_keep="true">After finalizing the installation I realized that even though reporting services was working, the reports didn't. As I found out, by reading this excellent <A class="" href="http://blogs.msdn.com/dstfs/archive/2008/10/23/my-experience-setting-up-tfs-windows-sever-sql-server-2008.aspx" target=_blank mce_href="http://blogs.msdn.com/dstfs/archive/2008/10/23/my-experience-setting-up-tfs-windows-sever-sql-server-2008.aspx">blog post</A>, this was because of the installation of SQL I used Network Service as service account and this was used by&nbsp;Analysis Services to access the SQL Server. After creating a user for Network Service and adding it to the TfsWarehouseDataReader role everything works.</P><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9182091" width="1" height="1">TFSInstallation
