Symptom

You are using the TFSAdminUtil.exe tool from Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2008 Service Pack 1, attempting to set the ReportServerUri value via the ConfigureConnections command, like this:

TfsAdminUtil ConfigureConnections /ReportServerUri:http://SSRS_Server/ReportServer

You then check the ReportServerUri value using the TfsAdminUtil ConfigureConnections command without any parameters, which generates a list of current values. You note that the ReportServerUri value is missing the "/ReportServer" part of the path. For example, you expect to see this:

http://SSRS_Server/ReportServer/ReportService.asmx

...but instead see this (incorrect):

http://SSRS_Server/ReportService.asmx
(http://SSRS_Server/ReportService.asmx)

Cause

There is bug in the TFSAdminUtil.exe tool included with Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2008 Service Pack 1.

Resolution

Use this TfsAdminUtil command instead. This does not rely on the utility to fully qualify the path - you are doing it yourself:

TfsAdminUtil ConfigureConnections /ReportServerUri:http://SSRS_Server/ReportServer/ReportService.asmx
