TF42056: Object Reference not set to an instance of an object
I have installed Team Foundation Build on Windows 2003 Standard Edition inside a Virtual Machine running on Virtual Sever 2005 R2.
I have confirmed that the Team Build Service is running.
When connecting from a client machine and a build is started the following error occurs:
TF42056: The build service could not connect to the Team Foundation Server: Object Reference not set to an instance of an object.
I have enabled the trace logger at level 4 (the default), and the connection request is logged but no error is written.
What would be causing this and where can I look for more ideas?
Hi Luis,
I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean?
Do you mean that "Is the service account added to the 'Build Services' project group"?
I'm not sure, I will check.
Sorry about my english :)
I mean, in the build machine, you have a windows service called "Build Services", can you check the account is this service using to run? maybe the account doesn't have permissions in TFS, it's just an idea, as the error is so generic.
