Importing files from Team Foundation Server - error message

Post by blemen »

When I try to import a file from Team Foundation Sever (TFS), I get the following message: Problem in the background thread: There is no working folder mapping for C:\SCM_DOCUMENTATION\SF330\GovernmentForms. What can I do to get this file into Flare?

I was able to successfully import my project using the File-->Import Project-->from Source Control feature. This is not the way others here import documents held in TFS, but it worked once I determined the correct server path to the project.

Hi Blemen,

Welcome to the forums, and I'm glad you solved your problem.

Flare works well with TFS, albeit slowly (due to TFS and networks), once it's set up. We found it was easier to do the setup in Visual Studio - create the workspaces and so on, and then just open the project in the local worksapace.
