Team Foundation Services question!

  • Guys

    First and foremost thanks in advance for checking into this question I'm posting.

    I'm starting to support a set of TFS servers for the company I work with and there is a complain related to the developers daily work like entering bug data, adding attachments etc...

    The problem they are having is that their TFS connection to the team system website times out after some time of inactivity and when they resume their activities they are no longer logged in anymore.

    I'm trying to find out if there is some timeout settings I can check somewhere in the TFS servers so I can maybe increase the time out rate or something.

  • Well, TFS is a product that some of us sooner or later have to integrate with SQL2005, so I guess you will hear from that more often in the future.

    TFS(team foundation Server) for VS2005/8 is Microsoft source control server that is used for both SQL Server and .NET development. Now there is addin for Java and none .NET developers from third party so yes it is a SQL Server question albeit not direct.

    Kind regards,

  • I believe what you are looking for is the IIS setting for connection timeout.

    Open Computer Management > Services and Applications > IIS > Web Sites. Then right click on the TFS website and select properties, in the middle you should see Connection timeout and the default value of 3600 seconds.

  • thanks mate that worked!
