Create new team project with custom process is failing

162 Views Asked by At

Im unable to create a new team project with the custom process as it is failing with "Project creation operation failed". But the new project creation works fine with any existing process template(i.e., Agile, Basic e.t.c.,)

The steps i followed to create a new process template

  1. Export Agile process template

  2. Edited ProcessTemplate.xml with new name, version and GUID. No other changes done.

  3. Saved the file and created a zip folder.

  4. Uploaded it in TFS under "Upload process template".

  5. While uploading showed the below warning, have clicked continue ignoring the warning [![enter image description here][1]][1]

  6. The upload is successful and can see my new process listed.

  7. Selecting the new process template and create new project is failing with the below error. [![enter image description here][2]][2]

As the error doesnt have much info , im not sure what is missing. As i have downloaded a teplate and just changed name,version and GUID. Any help on this regards will be very helpful. Thanks in advance [1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/4m2PI.png [2]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/P6eyG.png

Below is the solution. My TFS server is on premise and the inherited process is not available. Hence installed TFS process template editor ( https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=KarthikBalasubramanianMSFT.TFSProcessTemplateEditor ). This creates a new sub menu in Tools named process editor. Where i exported the work item. renamed and imported it with desired elements.
