I am having an issue with Team explorer in visual studio 2015 Update 1 RC. The server is TFS 2013.

When I want to View Builds of a specific build, I have this error message

Malformed Artifact URI: [Build name]

Parameter name: uri

enter image description here

This is working using Visual studio 2013 on the same machine, and working with visual studio 2015 on other machine. So this is not a problem with the server. Only 2 machines have the issue, and both have the extension TFS power tools 2015 installed.

I tried:

  • Remove the extension

  • Clear Team foundation cache

  • Repair visual studio

  • Hard reset all settings

Didn't resolve the issue.

"Edit build definition" and "Queue new build" are working.

Any ideas other than uninstall and reinstall visual studio?

Thanks

Edit: - Creating a New build definition in VS2015 is working, but trying to open it doesn't work

I can reproduce your issue in my Visual Studio 2015 just after the Update1 RC is installed.

Here is my Visual Studio version: enter image description here

I have reported this issue. You can also submit one feedback on the Microsoft Connect site.

Now, you need to open TFS web access directly to view one build. Or you need to uninstall Update1 RC.

This issue is fixed in VS2015 update1. You need to download and install it: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/news/vs2015-update1-vs.aspx

Cleaning cache folder on your client machine: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\6.0\Cache. And clean the cache on your TFS AT machine: C:\TfsData\ApplicationTier\_fileCache

Then, on your client machine, resetting settings and add-in settings with devenv /ResetSettings and devenv /ResetSkipPkgs, try rebuilding all templates with devenv /setup.

  • Thanks. Unfortunately, none of these fixed the issue. – Hyralex Nov 26 '15 at 20:53
  • Even completely resetting the settings does't work. Following http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17203820/how-do-i-truly-reset-every-setting-in-visual-studio-2012 – Hyralex Nov 26 '15 at 21:03
  • What's the TFS version are you using? Do you check a vNext build or a XAML build? Can you reproduce this issue on a new build with the same VS? Please share the entire error log here. – Cece Dong - MSFT Nov 27 '15 at 02:38
  • This is Xaml build. Server TFS 2013. Creating new Build in the same VS can't be opened. How can I get the logs details of error occuring in the Team explorer? Thank you for your help – Hyralex Nov 27 '15 at 03:54
