The port assignment does not match the default configuration

  • Article

The information in this article applies to:

  • Visual Studio 2005 Team Foundation Server

  • Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Foundation Server

  • Application-tier server

  • Health check

The Best Practices Analyzer tool for Team Foundation Server queries the metabase for Internet Information Services (IIS) on the application-tier server to determine the port assignments for the Web sites on which Team Foundation relies.

A warning appears if the port assignments do not match the following default assignments.

Web site

Port

Default Web Site

80

SharePoint Central Administration

Note

The tool checks the port number of this Web site when Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 is installed but not when Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 or Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is installed.

To resolve the issue, log on to the application-tier server, and change the port assignment to the one that the warning specifies.
