Hello,

 

Since we upgraded to TFS 2008 we've been having some trouble with undoing
pending changes. It was due to a bug in TFS combined with our "different"
SQL server collation setting:

I've since reinstalled our data tier SQL server with the correct collation
and undos are working fine again. However, since the problem began, Solution
Explorer in Visual Studio 2008 has been showing the little person icon
overlayed over certain files and when you hover over the icon the tooltip
says "Checked out by someone else or in another place". This is normal if
the file is actually checked out but both Source Control Explorer and a
TF.EXE STATUS query for all users and files on the server report that these
files are not checked out at all.

 

The particular set of files that appear to be checked out is consistent
across all users, machines, and workspaces so I inferred that the problem is
server-side. I'm guessing that maybe TFS caches the check-out-count for each
file but since our undo problem occurred perhaps the count is out of sync
with the actual data?

 

I tried to check-out and undo the problem files to force the server to
refresh their status but that didn't help. Am I on the right track? Is there
something I can do fix this annoying issue?

 

Thanks,
