Teamcity installation and TFS integration
We are currently evaluating TeamCIty (we license several other Jetbrains products such as Resharper and IntelliJ). I have installed the current build on a Windows system with all the default settings. When we go to connect TeamCity to our existing TFS 2008 system, we get the following error:
Connection failed! TFS failed. ExitCode: -1, Stdout:: TFS Native Verifier v7.0 Copyright (C) 2006-2011 JetBrains s.r.o.
ERROR - No TFS assemblies were found on the system. Please make sure you have Microsoft Team Explorer 8.0, 9.0 or 10.0 installed

Any insight you can provide would be appreciated.

Hi
Sorry for late reply.
TeamCity uses TFS client tools to access Team Foundation repositories. So you need them installed on a computer where TeamCity server is running.
Blake, did you ever get this sorted? I have the same issue (like you, doing an evaluation of TeamCity) and cant find the Team Explorer download...
Do you have a link to the TFS Client Tools download please?
I believe all you need is the Team Foundation 'Explorer' - it's a plug-in for VS but will run standalone as well
The link for the 2012 version is: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30656
Team City uses this as an interface to the remote TFS server
That's great, thanks.
