Some reports are not being updated
I'm not sure if this is a problem with my environment, or a misunderstanding on my part. A couple of the reports are not being updated -- for example, the Builds report never shows anything, even though I've run several builds on the build server. I'm also not seeing anything other than "zeros" in the Bug Rate report, even though I've created and resolved a couple of bugs.
The only Error in the Application log is below, but I don't think it's related. What else can I check?
Thanks,
Phil

Phil,
I'm assigning this question to someone on the team who can probably asist you better. In the meantime can you provide some additional context -- e.g., 1 box, 2 box, Beta 3 or Refresh, etc. Any details can only help.
Thanks
Thanks for following up on this, here's my configuration:
I've installed TFS on a single server using the Beta 3 refresh. It took several attempts to get it installed, so it's possible that something was not done correctly. I did deviate from the install recommendations in that I did not use a Domain account for the reporting service -- instead I used a local account. This is because getting non-user domain accounts at my company is a big deal.
Other than that, I followed the install guide pretty closely.
One other possibly related problem I'm having is that somewhere in the install process I must have provided only the computer name, not the fully qualified domain name for the TFS box. The symptom I'm seeing is that when I click on "Reports" from the Sharepoint site, I get redirected to a URL like https://servername/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx?ItemPath=... instead of https://servername.domain.com/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx?ItemPath=...
If you have any other specific questions, I'll be happy to go into more details.
Thanks again,
Phil
I just walked through the guide and everything seems ok. The process is running, the cube is being processed, but I'm still not seeing some of the reports show any data. For example, the "Project Velocity" report should be showing Resolved and Closed bugs. I have over 10 bugs filed, most of them resolved, but the report still shows zeros for all the dates. Another example, report "Bug Rates" is also showing zero across all dates.
I wonder if there is some other trigger that I'm not doing to update these reports. For example, I'm not running builds in most cases yet. Do builds affect bugs in the warehouse?
Hi Phil,
Please let us know if you are still having this problem. As for your question regarding builds, all of the different data load independently, so you should see information in your work item reports even if you don't do builds.
Thanks,

What I've concluded is that with the Agile template, I don't get as much data showing in the reports as with the CMMI template. Whether this is by design or a problem with the templates, I'm not sure.
I've started creating my projects with the CMMI template and I'm finding it more aligned with my needs.
