OnRoad Test Management

Hi,

we are currently upgrading and I wanted to uninstall v2.2 but the program "TFS Bug Item Synchronizer" is not shown in the Add-Remove-Programs Section.

Shall I do the force uninstall procedure with the MS cleanup utility now?

Thank you!

Yes, run it with that.

I run the MS cleanup utility but the "TFS Bug Item Synchronizer" is not listed there either.

I deleted the IIS DefectWebService and I think I will just go ahead with installation of v2.2?

Or could that cause problems later?

Try to run the component setup first and see if it runs through. If that succeeds, then run the main setup. 

//Ilpo

OK - that worked fine.

However after the installation the IIS DefectWebService is missing (I did iisreset) and only the DBService (Windows Service) is there.

With version 2.1 there were 3 windows services.

Has something gone wrong?

Do I have to reboot?

 I cannot do an uninstall either:

error message: Error 1001: The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

Thanks.

DefectWebService is something that you create manually in IIS. What you should have as services is DBService, YapWatcher and DefectWatcher.

If any of these is missing, see InstallService.cmd how to install these manually. This file is in installation folder root.

Great! Now the services are there.

Now I noticed the Uninstall possibility when calling the Setup.exe.

Maybe I should have called the old v2.1 Setup.exe to Uninstall...?

 Thanks for your quick help!

If it does not show in the Control Panel program list, I don't think that the uninstall would have worked.

 //Ilpo

OK.

Now I am wondering whether I really had to delete the existing IIS DefectWebService (as described in the installation manual).

Could I just have used the old one from v2.1 (I'm asking because I have to do the same installation on another machine later)?

If you do installation to the same folder, it would have just used the old IIS DefectWebService settings. Only thing that changes is the dll in bin -folder. 

//Ilpo

Fine.

Now unfortunately I get the following error when starting TFSSyncAdmin.exe

Did you run the component setup? If you did, run it still in repair mode.

//Ilpo

OK that works now.

I uninstalled (it worked now) via SetupComponents.msi  and Setup.msi and then reinstalled.

Thank you!

I tested the new version.

We would like to accomplish the following:

Just use the Destination Work Item Type field and select this QC field for that. On 2.2 there is now the setting DestinatinoWorkItemTypeValueMap in TFS project settings, you can pick an value map that you create and convert the type using this.
