I connect to a remote TFS 2010 instance using Visual Studio 2010. I can Get Latest for all files within a particular project except for one database backup file. When I try to Get Latest on this file I get the following error:

TF30063: You are not authorized to access Microsoft-IIS/6.0

I’ve tried clearing my local VS client cache, but that doesn’t help. There are no entries in the Event Logs to give any clues as to what is going on.

Any help appreciated, or any ideas where I can find out more diagnostic information via would be appreciated.

Colin.

    Ok, so I’ve fixed it. I took the size of the database backup file down to 1.5Mb by removing obsolete data sets from it and it worked.

    Not sure if it was a TFS problem or a work proxy problem – maybe a 25Mb file transfer limit imposed. The latter seems more likely to me.
