Symbolic name does not apply everywhere

TFS can be accessed through a symbolic name liketeamsystem.company.com. This is accomplished by creating a dns entry for the nameteamsystem.company.comand then running theactivatedtcommand with this name as the argument on the application tier.

We done this on our TFS-server to be able to creating a hot standby later but also to make it easier to move to a different (more powerful) server. But some problems occur.

The links to the builds in the builds report on the reporting site links to the physical machine - not toteamsystem.company.com.
The same applies to the links to the bugs on the Bugs found without corresponding test report.

This applies to the RTM release of TFS. Have we missed some important information or is it a bug?

Regards

Christer

Hi Christer,

Try setting the TFSUrlPublic value in the global config located at ..\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Foundation Server\Web Services

Change to HTTP://<FQDN>:8080

(Note that you will need to remember to uncomment the portion below.
