TFS 2010 RC, getting 404 on http://localhost:8080/tfs

Solution 1:

Finally got it. I found this blog post link text

Turns out I had UrlScan installed and this blocked my tfs site

This fixed it:

you can also fix this by telling urlscan to allow dots in paths:

Modify the urlscan.ini file in C:\windows\system32\inetsrv\urlscan

set AllowDotInPath to 1 instead of 0

There are no . in my paths but I guess there is some url rewrites going on

Solution 2:

With team foundation server 2010, the URL format has changed slightly. try http://server:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection1

This is of-course, assuming that the default collection on your TFS installation is called "DefaultCollection1"; please feel free to modify this as necessary.

Solution 3:

The URL for WebAccess to type in the browser is

http://server:8080/tfs/web

Assuming from your FOURTH edit, you are using it like this am I right? Just to make sure.

I have installed my TFS 2010 RC on a fresh Windows 7 VM installation, with all default settings. I can access the site even from a Firefox Browser on an Ubuntu box.
