Hi,
I would suggest leaving a comment on Brian Harry's blog in regards to this problem, I have had issues with other MS products and was successful. Sorry to hear about your build info, that really sucks.

After trying to resolve the issue for 5 days, I had no choice but to take the aggressive route and truncate everything in the TfsBuild tables. The upgrade then succeeded without a problem but I am left with no historical build data. There is clearly a problem with the upgrade process.

I had come across the comments from Buck Hodges but it sounds like the final remedy was deleting everything in TfsBuild. Do they mean actually truncating the TfsBuild database? Sounds a bit aggressive. What would be the outcome of doing that if it got us over the hump? We wouldn't have any build definitions available and all of the historical build information would be gone?

I was pretty optimistic considering that there are very few issues reported so far. I had never installed SQL Server 2005 SP1 on my single-box TFS machine so I installed it. Everything passed in the System Health Check afterwards. The installation process was fairly smooth and quick until the progress bar made it to just a little bit left and then it appears to just sit for over an hour. It basically looks like it sits until it depleted all of the room left on the C:\ drive of the server (which had 7 GB available at the beginning of the installation). After rerunning the installation a few times, I figured out that something was indeed going on behind the scenes and that the tempdb log was growing and growing (when the install finally failed, the tempdb log was 5 GB in size). The message box from the installation simply states, "Error 29250.Team Build Upgrade failed to complete successfully". I opened up the logs and the last couple of lines have this: Starting execution of steps from prereq01_PrepareUpgrade.sql.resources Finished execution of steps from prereq01_PrepareUpgrade.sql.resources Starting execution of steps from step01_MigrateBuilds.sql.resources Finished execution of steps from step01_MigrateBuilds.sql.resources Starting execution of steps from step02_MigrateBuildQualities.sql.resources Finished execution of steps from step02_MigrateBuildQualities.sql.resources Starting execution of steps from step03_MigrateBuildSteps.sql.resources Finished execution of steps from step03_MigrateBuildSteps.sql.resources Starting execution of steps from step04_MigrateAssociatedChangesets.sql.resources Finished execution of steps from step04_MigrateAssociatedChangesets.sql.resources Starting execution of steps from step05_MigrateAssociatedWorkItems.sql.resources Finished execution of steps from step05_MigrateAssociatedWorkItems.sql.resources Starting execution of steps from step06_MigrateOpenedWorkItems.sql.resources I then cleaned up the C:\ drive to have 13 GB of disk space available and reran the installation. It still took a long while and depleted all of the space on the C:\ drive but made it one step further to "step07" (I don't have the text in front of me but I believe it mentions migrating Projects or something). So I am now on my 7th run of the installation. This time, I have setup SQL Server to create the tempdb files on a separate drive which has 26 GB available. It has been running for a while and has depleted 7 GB of disk space. All of this seems a bit crazy. Why would the logs be growing like this? One important thing to note is that I never installed TFS 2005 SP1 on this machine but I don't know why this would make a difference (it wasn't flagged in the System Health Check either). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, JZ OzTFS.com - to unsubscribe from this list, send a message back to the list with 'unsubscribe' as the subject.
