I am facing problem while migrating from Microsoft Visual SourceSafe (VSS) to Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server. It says some paths that are not valid cannot be migrated.
I am facing problem while migrating from Microsoft Visual SourceSafe (VSS) to Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server. It says some paths that are not valid cannot be migrated.
Typically, this issue occurs for one of the following reasons:
The path contains a Visual Studio Team Foundation Server reserved name.The path contains a file name that is in the MS-DOS-compatible short name format. For example, the path contains the following file name: Abcdef~1.txt
Can any one compare Visual Source Safe vs. Team Foundation Server in terms of cost? When i use the VSS Converter to perform the migration it says path is not valid, the action is not migrated.
Team Foundation Server is much, much better, but still has quite a few annoyances, IMO. Visual SourceSafe is licensed individually, whereas Team Foundation Server is licensed on a server and CAL (client access license) model. source control in TFS is very high performance (SQL Server based) and you can create a distributed environment.
