The New Team Project Wizard was unable to connect to {name}, the server that hosts SQL Server Reporting Services. The reason for the failed connection cannot be determined at this time.

Possible causes of this error include:

  • You do not have the required permissions to create a project.

  • A server in the Team Foundation deployment is incorrectly configured. This problem is especially common after a server move, failover, or other maintenance activity.

  • The server that hosts SQL Server Reporting Services is offline.

    Because the wizard could not connect to the server that hosts SQL Server Reporting Services, the wizard was unable to create the SQL Server Reporting Services site on that server.

To correct this error

  1. Confirm that you have the required permissions to create a project. This includes the required permissions on each server that hosts Team Foundation Server, SharePoint Products, and SQL Server Reporting Services. For more information, see Create a project.

  2. Contact your Team Foundation Server administrator to verify that the server configuration is correct.

  3. Contact the administrator for the SQL Server Reporting Services server {name} to confirm that the server is available on the network.

  4. If the server shows available on the network, review the project creation log and follow any instructions provided.

    The log shows each action taken by the wizard at the time of the failure and may include additional details about the error. To open the log:

    1. Start Notepad.

    2. On the File menu, click Open.

    3. Navigate to $:\Documents and Settings\user name\Local Settings\Temp\Team Services_TeamProjectCreation_yyyy_mm_dd_hh_mm_ss.log.

    4. Click Open.

    5. On the Edit menu, click Find.

    6. In the Find what dialog box, type Exception or Error, and then click Find Next.

    7. Review the log entries to find network or file related issues.

  5. If the problem persists, contact your Team Foundation Server administrator.
