Question

I’ve just downloaded and installed Team Foundation Server 2012 Update 1 on my TFS2012 server and now I can’t configure a build controller or edit build definitions.

I downloaded the update from here:
Team Foundation Server 2012 with Update 1 (web installer or 1.1 GB ISO file)

Then I ran the installer on my server that contains both the Application Tier and Data Tier on the same box.

Then I ran the installer on my other server that is a Build Controller and Build Agent. It required me to reconfigure the build controller, but the wizard failed with the following error:

When I look in the event log of the application tier, I see the following error:

Detailed Message: TF30065: An unhandled exception occurred.

Answer 1

TF30040: The database is not correctly configured.

First of all, this error message is an indication of a schema/version mismatch between the binaries installed on the server and the database schema.

The bad news is that this is a caching bug where the server.

Workaround

The good news is that it can be easily worked around by running the following commands on your Application Tier server. After this, you should be able to configure your build servers.

iisreset
net stop tfsjobagent
net start tfsjobagent

With TFS 2012 Update 2 and later versions, this issue has been fixed.
