TFS Install Scripts V2

Hey everyone,

Just noticed my good friend Steven Borg from Accentient posted my TFS Install Scripts (Oct 05). You can get them directly here. The TFS install scripts are scripts I put together to automate as much as possible of the pre-requirement application installations TFS requires; IIS, SQL Server, Windows SharePoint Services 2.0, Service packs, TFS users (Service, report, setup).

I hope this helps you install your own TFS with the least amount of work. TFS installation can hard, so I hope those scripts help you succeed. Please tailor them to fit your environment and give me feedback about that worked out for you.

To start the installation run Team System Install.hta it's the driver application to the install process.

Thanks Accentient for hosting

Btw while your checking into tools to help you with TFS also check Accentient Widgets site here for tons of really excellent tools.

Cheers,

Thanks for this. I'll have to give it a go. Getting tired of reading the install documents over and over. :)

Let me know how it works out for you.

Thanks a lot...after 6 unsuccessful installs, I finally got it right, just to have TFS ruin my existing IIS sites. Typical!

So John, did the TFS install succeed? After installing TFS WSS take over the root IIS site, you may need to add some exclusion in WSS if your site was in the IIS Root. Let me know if I can help.

Yes, it did succeed - sorry it's taken me so long to reply, I never knew you had replied. But yes, it did install correctly, and I added some exclusions to SPS and created a seperate site (different header) for my other sites. Thanks!

Glad to hear it.
